I sure do! I was a bit apprehensive paying $400 for a vacuum cleaner, since I hate to vacuum. My hubby convinced me to buy and I am glad I did....It makes vacuuming fun,hehehehehe

Oddly, this place is up high where no water reaches, but I think there is mildew there. I've tried a couple different primers over the years. I have the same flaking problem on a kitchen wall. The house is 82 years old and I live in the South (VA) where humidity is high...? Thanks for any advice.

I found a new unused camera bag in my closet. Now I remember why it's not used... the zipper is not smooth and is difficult to zip. Is there anything I can put on it that's NOT greasy or oily to help it work better?

My floors are in horrible shape. Stripping - would it even be worth it? Or should I go for something different and new?

My girlfriend at work told me that she was told not to run it when she had the AC on by the guy who installed her AC. We run ours all the time- helps with moisture. Your thoughts?

hypothetically, let's say you saw someone coming out of row of bushes from about thirty feet away--you might be able to tell if they were wearing a tuxedo or something recognizeable, but as far as facial features? It would be kind of blurry right? Height? Hair/eye color? You wouldn't be like dependably certain would you?

Just wondering.

I have a fairly small flower bed and I did have it looking very nice but grasshoppers have started eating all of the blooms off of my flowers and now all that is left is a few little blooms. the plants are still alive just not pretty anymore. how do i get rid of these things? I would prefer something that wasn't toxic or something that wont hurt my dog if he happens to get into it.
