:P Actually booze + caulk sounds like a REALLY bad idea.

I own a TH condo so I don't have to do outside or yard maintenance, just the indoor stuff. I was questioning my decision too when I replaced all my pipes (polybutylene) but if I still rented I'd still be paying an extra $50 a month every year I signed a lease like I was 4 years ago renting. Not sure if the rent prices/trends up there are the same way, but my mortgage only goes up and down a little based on my property taxes coming out of my escrow. I think when you get everything fixed you'll feel good about it again. Even I re caulked a bathtub and I'm not very handy with fixing things, so it shouldn't be a problem for anyone with hands.
