Quirks and Sputters...


We've lived in our house for about eight years, but it's about 13 years old.

We are experiencing all kinds of quirks and sputters with mechanical and non-mechanical items around our house...inside and out! The TV repairman just left, my dishwasher soap dispenser won't dispense (well at least not on a regular basis), my pool is leaking (nothing to do about that until spring, except to keep putting water in it as needed), my refrigerator and furnace make noises on alternate days, my son's laptop has decided to reject its operating system and my garage interior light works sometimes and not others.

I just realized that I said my house is 13 years old...unlucky number 13! Do you think that could be the problem?!?!

Is there anything strange going on at your house?

  1. Well, our house was built in the 50's so any sputters are probably justified. Yes, we have problems. Let's see. The front porch bricks are falling out and the stoop is crumbling, the banister to the basement recently fell off its mount, the water heater makes a nasty pinging sound every time how water is used, the side door storm door is broke, our dishwasher make a heck of a racket when it runs,shall I go on?

  2. No need. I get the drift! We just made our "to do" list for spring. It's quite extensive. Comes with the territory, I guess.
