All three of my teen sons have loft beds, but the one with a twin size--we can't keep a sheet on it for more than a day or two. It is a good size mattress (not a pillow top, but not a small, cheap one, either). He is a very restless sleeper, which makes it tricky.


BTW, he's a normal size teen, 5'8", 150 lbs.
No problems with the other two, but they have Ikea softer mattresses, which may make a difference. IDEAS??

I have M.S. and would like to try my hand at growing some of my own organic produce. Due to limited mobility, I need to grow things in large patio pots. Does anyone know anything about what types of vegitables can be grown in this manner. Any good books available on the subject?

We have a very bad oil leak from a truck that was parked on our concrete drive. The truck is gone, and now we are trying to figure out the best way to work on removing the oil and stain. We have been told that we need to start working on it and just keep pressure washing it and scrubbing it. But with what?? What is the best process and product to use?

I,m trying to find out if there is something to put on a mower deck that will keep grass from sticking, hold up over time, and protect the deck? Something that you would not have to put on every couple hours or every other week. I was thinking of something like polyurethane, power coating, or something eles that would be better.

The closet walls have now dried. Thus far, I've put a fan in the doorway to try and ventilate, but I really want to rid the closet completely from the odor, not mask or cover it up. I'm also afraid clothes etc, may absorb the smell. Can anyone give me some good sound help to remove the odor?

We bought a house last year and our closing attorney mentioned to claim it as a homestead exemption since that would save us some money on our taxes. We still have not done that. Is it too late now? Where do you go to do that and what documents do you need?
