I live in a fairly new area. I have tried the sprays for ants and stakes. They are still alive and well. They are in an area where I have planted flowers......I need your help......I need to get rid of these and calling a pest control is too costly as I am retired and on a limited income.

I will not do anything illegal. But I am tired of paying a big rent with nothing to show for it. I would like my family to have a real home of their own, that we can call home for the next 50+ years. I don't make a lot of money (barely enough to get by & my rent payment is one reason why). I am job searching for a better paying job. My credit has taken a hit from a nasty separation so that hurts when trying to get loans, I am working on fixing it but it takes time. Please help me with ideas to help me along the way.

The plants are large and healthy. They get sun up until noon and they get plenty of water and fertilizer. The blossoms just shrivel up and die without bearing any veggies.

I have an ugly shed ... and I want to cover at least one side of it with fast growing climbers ... is there any climber that grows fast, and is frost hardy? I'm not worried if it blooms or not ... anything is better than looking at that dratted wall ....

I throw everything in there: pots and pans, the things underneath the burners when I clean the stove. I hate washing dishes, so I put everything in the dishwasher. Am I lazy or efficient?

It ran for 24 hrs yesterday at setting of 76 but never got below 78. It has been 80 in the house while set at 76 when it is very hot outside. Filter is clean. Any suggestions?

I hear that you can buy furniture much cheaper by getting it from North Carolina. My understanding is the delivery is no more than what I would normally pay in sales tax. But there are so many North Carolina furniture stores on the internet - anyone know of reputable ones and whether this is worth the trouble or not?

Does anyone know what type of indoor mold would be bluish-green (aquamarine), small, and circular?

I've performed an over-the-counter mold test in my basement, and that was the primary result in the Petri dish. A control test outdoors showed a wider variety of molds, but a lot less of the aquamarine type.

Thanks for your knowledge/guesses.

I need to get my husband in the mood to start fixing up our house again. We bought a fixer upper in december of 05 and we worked on it a little for the first month or two and now I can't seem to get him motivated again. Used to I would get started and then he would take over and start working on it but that doesn't work anymore. We have two bathrooms and they are horrible and I want him to fix them. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get him motivated again? He knows how to do the stuff becasue thats what he does for a living. I have begged him to start on the bathrooms and he says I will, but WHEN? I know I need to make him think that it is his idea but how do I do that? Please help!!! My bathrooms are driving me insane.

I live in an apartment and would like a washer and dryer that doesn't require those huge hook ups, that can possibly drain in the bath tub if need be, or plugged into a regular outlet. This may sound foolish, but i'm a fool dammit.

Are they concerned that they will be so rough on their improvements that they would need repaired anyway before selling?
Just trying to figure out the logic...never made sense to me why some live in a dump, only to fix it up before moving.
Sure they get more money at the sale...but they would get the same money anyway and enjoyed living in it, had they improved sooner...not to mention appreciative neighbors.
