Recently I've discovered more of the joys of home ownership. That is, the joy of “home improvement” by tiling one of the bathroom floors (more on that to come) and the joys of unexpected repair/replacement required.
The large window looking out from my dining room over lake union has apparently developed a leak in the seal between the two panes of glass. Considering the moist environment of the Puget Sound area, it shouldn't be hugely suprising that within a week or two, this moisture had turned into a mold colony :( In a couple days I'll get the initial estimates on the window replacement. Until then the grey I see through the window isn't the usual Seattle grey that's coming back into fashion - instead it's unique to that window...
It could be worse though - Aaron recently discovered that his bedroom ceiling was leaking because the sprinkler pipe had a connection that had problems... Since plumbers won't touch sprinkler pipes it meant two seperate repair people - now there's a hole in his ceiling that's yet to be patched up.
