My landlord is installing new windows, inside and out. They are vinyl, and my blinds were hung on wood window frames. How does one hang window blinds on vinyl window frames?

I just bought a house in Dunwoody North and I would like to have an above ground pool as well as build a fence. Is there any kind of code enforcement that must be followed, that I should know about?

What is the best way to do this, I currently have formica its ugly I got a new stove and that new stove does not look good with my counter, SO I want to lay down white tiles, I'm not sure how to go about it, I see the tiles are not too expensive only 12 cent a tile. So I think I can handle that. Does anyone know how and what to do. Thanks.

I put some clorox on the white soles of my shoes because some dye had rubbed off on them from my new jeans and I thought clorox turned whites whiter not brown! It's a light brown color where I put the clorox. I tried alcohol but that didn't work? Any solutions because these shoes are expensive.

if so, that's gross. I mean, if there is one drain connecting all the tub drains and it gets clogged, does everything come back up from the apartments underneath me or will it just be mine? I really hope I'm not standing ankle deep in someone elses shower scum eeeww.

I'm laying some timber floorboards directly onto concrete and i need to measure if there is moisture in the concrete so i can determine if i need to put a sealer down. The concrete slab was layed in October 2005 and there is black sheeting through the middle.

Any ideas?

Also - Can anyone give me some tips on what to use with laying my floorboards etc?

This only happens at night, if we have the air conditoner on, after a few hours, our smoke alarm will start beeping in five minute intervals. We have four of them in the apartment and only one of them beeps. What could be causing this?

Is there a normal, general way that the wiring is distributed from breaker box to house? How can I tell which outlets & lights that each wires run & what order?

My mother did all of our sewing, but she died last year, and - so far - I haven't even been able to thread a needle. She tried to teach me one time, but I didn't pay attention.

I am burning one right now, but the label is no longer visible and it's the best one that actually smells when burning. I have a hard time finding inexpensive candles that smell great. So if anyone can suggest brand names that would be great. I already have Yankee Candles.

I've had trouble with stopped up sewer line from my house to water main about once a year since moved to house 1997. Plumber has been able to temporarily clean out the line each time, but we have come to the point that it must be replaced. It apparently is cracked or broken probably from tree roots. I can't locate anything in policy that states whether the sewer line is considered part of home. I also have been having electrical problems such as flickering lights & some outlets don't work & electric company says trouble is in house. Should I wait before filing a claim on that, or is it OK to file 2 seperate claims at once? Also, is there time limit or can I go back to when these problems started years ago? Never filed a claim befor in my life. Deductible is $1500.00.

If I was going to tell you something important, how many times would I have to tell you before you remembered it?

For reals?

No, really. How many times?
