Things I have recently learned

So I have learned a few things since becoming a homeowner.

• whoever coined the term "paint the town red" has NEVER actually painted anything red.
  
• when painting red someone will track it over the light colored carpets.
• some people think it is a good idea to store their dish towels in the dryer vent.
• I am not one of those people.
• the best way to remove that towel is with half a curtain rod.
  
• I need a cordless drill.
  
• the shower door is smarter than I am.
• 26 kitchen cabinet knobs are expensive.
• leaves take up a lot of space in lawn bags. you can never have enough.
• boxes will multiply if you leave them unattended.
  
• Home Depot and its staff are your friends.
  
• those friends will rekey your locks to a new key for $5 per lock.
• that is WAY cheaper than calling a locksmith.
  

I am sure I have learned more and as I think of it, I will share.
