August is still a popular month for summer vacations, but if you´ve already had yours, now is the time to get ready for school, fall, and the holidays at the end of the year.
- Make blackberry freezer jam.
- If you like to make Christmas gifts you already know August is getting a late start for some projects. Still, no time like the present.
- Check windows and doors to make sure locks work properly and that they are in good condition. Clean tracks and lubricate hinges. Repair or replace any cracked windows.
- Perform garage door maintenance.
- Repair minor brick and mortar cracks. Call a professional if necessary, expecially concerning foundations.
- Think you need more attic insulation? Add it now.
- If you haven´t cleaned gutters for awhile, check them now. You can replace damaged or leaking gutters now, or add leaf guards that will allow leaves to slide off. Now there´s a thought! No more painstaking gutter cleaning!
