Congratulations, buying a home is a great decision and owning one is even better as long as you enjoy the work and remember that for everything you do to improve the house, you are building equity which you will get back!

Things most forget but you gotta have -
A good pair of safety glasses. Trust me.
Two pairs of gloves - one nylon for working around the garage and basement and one thick leather for working in the yard and pulling weeds.
A box of those large contractor trash bags.
Adjustable wrenches.
Leak alarms - these are little boxes that take a 9v battery. They scream like he11 when they detect water. Get several, put one under each sink and one in the basement.
Mousetraps - if you are near woods, you will get mice.
