Now I know why the theme of "Home DIY list" is so popular among the western tv series.
Whether it be 'The Simpsons' or 'Everybody Loves Raymond',
this theme never fails to pop up as the wife nags the husband to do the home DIYs.
Apparently the house does need heaps of DIY fixes.
I fixed the roof the other day because the ceiling was leaking (done).
I try to fix the bathroom pipes today but unsuccessful, plumber needed.
I think thats where the saying comes about, "there goes the money down the drain".
Plumbing is not cheap. Called and asked for a quote but it was too expensive that I decided to try myself.
I guess I'm more a roof man than a plumber man.
Still need to do some electrician's work - yet to find out if I'm electric material!
Also there's gardening to do!
The neighbour's asking every weekend when I'm doing gardening...streesed.
Not that he's a busy body, but because he's offered to do some gardening for me which I refused.
I guess he wants me to start working so that he can come help out.
He's a nice bloke.
But I'm pressured to do the gardening really soon!
And also not leaving fixing doors etc out of the list
The DIY list is creeping longer and longer.
More and more stuff to do during the weekends.
I've been like Homer being a couch potato all weekend.
I suppose its time to put more effort and time into this DIY list of mine.
I'll do bit of gardening tomorrow morning I suppose...

Great responsibility comes with "large" house. Why not you leave the gardening to your gardener? Is he as handsome as the one in Desprate House Wife?
Dunno about desperate housewives (dun watch that). Spent $630 today for the plumber. Definitely money down the drains! No money left for gardening.
U need to do it by urself! i reckon dat it is a good exercise for you. enjoy the beauty of those roses ^.^
You kidding me? Plumbing cost you $630? Did you hire Mario and Lugio to do the job for you?
I'll be doing some gardening this weekend.
Well, thats why westerners do lotsa DIYs - unlike asian countries...
