It pours. I guess its the time of year when everything decides its had enough. First, my garage door opener broke, then last week I lost the harddrive on my computer. Now, after raining all night my sump pump decided it didn’t want to shut off. Sure it didn’t cost me much to fix these thing, but the time and enough make it a real pain.
Well, I got our garage door fixed over the weekend. It should have been a 1 hour job, but instead took me 4 hours. First I was missing some tools I needed to get the gears replaced. Then, it was running backwards where the door was already closed and would try to close again. Then, the up/down limits were all screwed up. Why does it seem like all my home projects end up taking so much longer then they should?
Today my garage door opener decided to die on me. It is a Sear’s Craftman 1/2hp chain drive opener that was there when we bought the house 4 years ago. The teeth on the worm drive gear are shorn off. I’ve ordered a new part, but its a real pain not having a working opener.
