Yes, the jacket is cheap. I bought it on sale. The zipper worked in the store before i bought it and once after that. The third time was when it broke and hasn't worked since. My thinking is that if it worked once it can work again. Any suggestions?

I have only had these spiders in the house this year, they are horrible and are everywhere. Their bodies are small but they have really long legs and make cob webs everywhere, as soon as you get rid of the cob webs they are making new ones, they are also outside in the shed so are not particular to the house. Any suggestions

I have decorated a bedroom for a boy in the vintage 50's era. The theme is "everything" to do with a small boy in the 50's, baseball, tinkertoys, marbles, Daniel Boone, Babe Ruth etc... My problem is I need to use a screen divider. The frame is built, now I cannot decide what to cover it with. Please help, I need lots of ideas!!!!!!

My house has stucco walls. I'm trying to train a beautiful vine up the walls but every nail I hammer into the stucco either bends or a chunk of stucco breaks off. What am I doing wrong. Can someone give me step by step instructions, please.

Say you've spent the better part of your Saturday pulling weeds out by the root, mostly Dandylions (not yet gone to seed) and Thistles, and you've left them laying on the lawn before you can be bothered picking them all up to put them in the yard waste bin.

Then while you're not looking, someone fires up the muching lawnmower, and mows the lawn, weeds and all.

Here's the question: The weeds were pulled out, root and all, left in the sun 1/2 day to wilt a little, then obliterated into a fine shred by the mulching mower. Are the weeds gone, or did mowing them just do a better job seeding a crop of new weeds than the wind ever could?

Just curious. Someone's fate hangs in your answer.

P.S. Yes, I'm mow-man.

We all have at least one, if not 2. They're full of dried up ink pens, rubber bands, dead batteries, etc. But what's the oddest thing in yours? I found a 10 yr old receipt from a restaurant and 2 tags from trees I bought 6 yrs ago that have long since died. Maybe it's time to clean it out.........nah..........

I have a very small balcony so space is an issue, but I love fresh veggies! Can they grow upward like cukes? Is there a dwarf variety for small spaces?
