Why I love my new house

I hope you will have a lot of fun in your new house, it looks fantastic at least.

New houses are more work than fun, I'm finding out. I'm hoping the fun starts next summer when I can actually begin to really enjoy my backyard deck and pool.

Tonight I made a trip to ye olde hardware store and bought a few things for some small projects. I replaced the low-flow showerhead in the downstairs bathroom with a regular one, caulked the basement windows, swapped the plastic dryer vent tube with a metal one, put locks on the sheds in my backyard, tarped and bungied my pool filter, and bought a barbecue cover for my naked grill.

edit: and now I think I need to make a trip to a plumbing supply store. Two of my three toilets are running constantly unless I jiggle the handles, and even then they seem to run every now and then. I was told by a plumbing friend of mine that it's likely deteriorated flappers. He suggested that I replace them by turning off the water to the target toilets and removing the chain/flapper and bringing them to a plumbing place to match them up with new ones, and then reinstall. Is this a proper course of action with a running toilet?
