Home improvement fails make me feel better about living in an apartment. There are a lot of perks of owning a home but if fixing stuff isn’t your thing, it’s probably more annoying than anything. You have to take care of it or you’ll end up living in a dump.
Now that all of my friends are buying houses I’m starting to get the itch. Get me a pair of those dad new balance shoes so I can turn them green moving the lawn for the second time this week. It’s funny how you hit a certain age and home improvement projects look fun.
These people know the trials of home improvement. Whether you’re hiring someone to install a new toilet or trying to do the job yourself, these home improvement fails will make you miss living in an apartment.
