Say you make $150,000 a year. Does it make sense to fix your own plumbing or electrical when you can afford to hire a professional to do it for you?

I'm redecorating my bedroom. I was wondering if anyone had any feng shui tips at all? Even simple things like placing a cloth over your computer monitor at night. Anything, from furniture placements to colour to integrating a work environment (computer and desk area) into the bedroom. I don't need to read comments about feng shui being bull, design to my own liking, etc. (inevitably, i will be.)

thanks!

in my apt. right over my bed and my mattress got wet all the way through . Wow. Huh? I have an air mattress. Does it take long for an apt. to repair a leak in a roof? I wondered why the ceiling above my bed was turning yellow . . . looked like cigarette smoke stain . . . but I don't smoke . . .thought what . . .I hope the maintenance guy doesn't have to come back a zillion times and doesn't take too long. I have two rabbits and I think they think I only have one. I don't want anyone to use this as an opportunity to charge me a second pet deposit. Like . . .Hey, . . we saw that you have TWO rabbits. Any chance I can make them buy me a new mattress . . .like cause of mold from being wet. Wet twice cause last time I just thought that rain BLEW in real hard and far when I had the screen and not the glass door. And I just waited for it to dry. Smelled funny . . .but thought it was my rabbits litter box ammonia . . .now think it was because it was mold from mattress.

What kind of flower to be planted in Southern California that smells well do you think is best? Maybe something classical like a rose (what kind) or a different one. I just hope to plant one. Please mean by seed, not plant.

My husband and I have a great opportunity to buy an older fixer-upper home - this will be our fiorst home together!!! The foundation and the basics are in good shape. However, we will need to remodel and redecorate alot of the home- I want to know where we should spend alot of money (ie:Kitchen, Bedroom, etc.) We're hoping we can make good profit off this house in a couple years.

If we were to sell this home in a couple years, what would you look for?
As a buyer, Is the kitchen important? Bathroom ??? Etc. And if so, what features do you look for???
Thank you for your answers!!! :) Look forward to hearing them

My dad lost most of his house in a fire on the 4th of July. He doesn't have insurance and is only doing odd jobs right now. My little brother and sister live with him. They are basically homeless (living in the garage) until we can find money for him to rebuild. he just needs materials...he is a contractor so he can do the work himself. Please help.
