I have a big backyard that is close to a wooded lot, very open with lots of grass. at night the racoons (I think) are tearing up my yard looking for grubs. It looks like my yard has been thatched. I bought some grub killer and spread it around yard by not until Sept so it might be too late to kill them. In the mean time my yard is a war zone.

I have recently had my interior walls re-skimmed so they are nice and smooth. I did one coat of a light coloured matt paint. However the areas where the sunlight hits the wall you can see slight patches. I'm using a roller to apply the paint... any GOOD tips on how to get a nice even finish? Again good answers please!

I changed my a/c filter on the inside of my home but my thermostat still shows "service filter". Which side of the filter should face toward the unit? I have tried both and still same message. Also, my outside unit runs all the time, even when I turn the thermostat inside to "off". Is this normal? I rent and don't want to call the landlord because someone just came out here a few months ago to work on the outside unit(heats and cools) after lightning hit my home. I'm afraid he'll raise my rent if he has to keep calling someone to fix things. My light/ac bill is $258 month for a trailer, and I am wondering if there is an ac problem. It cools and heats fine.

I've got a lovely white blouse which is made from a crinkly sort of fabric. I think the fabric is known as crepe.

The trouble is, the crinkles go vertically, and there are some fold lines going horizontally. Is there a way to eliminate the fold lines without ironing (as this would remove the crinkles)? Also, what will happen to the crinkles when I wash it?

I have several esperanza shrubs in my backyard. Most are around 6 to 8 feet tall. A trunk on one of the 8 footers has split down the middle from a very hard storm that hit the region lately. Is there a way to mend these 2 back together and save the shrub?

We received two large print editions last week, and without looking I threw out current white and yellow pages. I have no residential directory now until Spring. My service is AT & T. Try to locate a phone number to call about this situation !! I can't find where to even start and call to report this . It is crazy and I don't believe there is a store in town, because trying to locate that in a local directory I have on hand or on line is like looking for a needle in a haystack. "We don't care, we are the phone company !!!" Hope somone can provide me with a phone number and what to do.
