house paranoia

[dirtylibrarian]

Being a homeowner can be worrisome.  After I replaced the furnace, I crossed my fingers and knock on wood all the time hoping I won' t have to deal with any more big repairs for a long while.

But a girl gets worried sometimes.  Today, while out doing a bit of weeding (my goal is 5 minutes minimum of yard work a day for the month of June), I noticed a crack in my lawn.  Under the tree.  Out by where the sewer line is supposed to be.  And suddenly I am paranoid that this is a sign of some terrible, huge repair in the waiting.  Google was no help, as crack and lawn just brings up stuff about faulty lawnmowers.

Anyone ever heard of such a thing?  Any advice? Ack!

Hmmm...this is talking about cracks in pipes, while I actually have a crack in the soil of the lawn. Sorta reassuring. But at the same time, I do have a tree over the sewer line. Hmmm.
