Leaky house syndrome

We seem to be suffering from leaky house syndrome. This syndrome (otherwise known as OMG it's friggin FUHREEEZING in here!!!) can be quite serious, requiring extensive amounts of money in the attempt to keep it's occupants warm, or at least, slightly above hypothermia stage.

When we bought this fabulous 'wouldn't it be fun to remodel a house and actually have some yard' house, we knew we would have to replace things, repair things, and spend money on them. Yah, we did NOT realize quantities in our thought process. There should be mandatory labeling of all houses older than 20 years that warn against the dangers (financial and otherwise) of purchasing an old shack!

Now where do I sign up to get off this damn roller coaster....
