It takes me an hour and a half to clean the bedroom, living, dining room, kitchen and bathroom. I don't mean heavy cleaning, just the regular cleaning like dusting, mopping, vacuuming.

This rug is about 5 years old and I cannot live with in any longer. There have been no spills or pet accidents, it just has a really strong odor. I hate to have to get rid of it, but have no idea how to deal with the smell.

I have no problem washing my pillow, but is it even possible? Won't the machine and/or the pillow get ruined?

Hi, I'm researching having an inground swimming pool installed in my yard. I am curious what options and accessories I can get (and hopefully the general price of those). Such as the different pumps, vacuums, etc. And rocks, waterfalls, slides, etc? Different types of concrete? Lights? I want to hear it all! Where can I learn more please?

And yes I change the one I am using every couple days, soak them in bleach, wash them frequently but they still smell. Do I have to buy new ones every couple months or what? I crocheted the ones I am currently using, they are 100% cotton. Any tips?

My nephew started an avocado plant from seedling but yesterday he noticed the leaves were being eaten by a caterpillar. We know it is a caterpillar because it was still there. How can we save the plant and not harm the caterpillar? We live in the Atlanta area of Georgia in the U.S. where the weatther is crazy this time of year. Very cool mornings, hot midday and back to cool nights. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

We moved house in April and the decor in the lounge is really annoying me now. Basically it is a big room (sort of lounge/diner size) with a pinky purple carpet and matching curtains at the patio doors. The walls are a dark pinky purple wallpaper on the bottom half, have a cream dado(sp) rail, then have a light pinky purple wallpaper with darker flowers on the top half (plus a matching border above the dado rail as they seemed to be obsessed by borders!)

Although I like pinky purple it's all a bit much so I want to redecorate. We can't really afford to get a new carpet or curtains so need to do something with the walls to calm it down a bit. I was thinking of just magnolia but the there is also a cream fireplace and I'm not sure if that would look strange.

So I'm looking for some decorating suggestions/ideas
