I have a desk at home but want to add a computer keyboard tray. Where can I get one? I want one that is not too expensive and is easy to assemble by myself.

i have a suede footstool, and when i ordered a calzone from delivery, it came in a box, so i put the box on my suede footstool, and when i took it off, there was something black like charcoal or burnt calzone on the bottom of the box AND my suede footstool. i tried washing it with water, but that only removed some of the stain. what else can i try? i live in a college dorm with limited access to cleaning supplies.

We have a beautiful apartment, except for the kitchen. The cabinets are a light oak color, and the doors (on the cabinets) are like a white fermicca (sp?). Any ideas to liven it up a bit? We can't paint and I don't want to glue anything to them.

I have to replace a concrete block porch with a 8'X20' slab of concrete on top. Estimates I have gotten are about $1900, that's ALOT of money. Just wondering if anyone knows of any companies or organizations that might help me out with the cost. Or any other suggestions. I do own the home, not renting.

What do I do with a mouse that is haunting me in my house. Seriously, I caught one once about a month ago and this same one or another one keeps sticking around. Basically, all I did was let the first one go after I caught him with a sticky trap. This one I'm doing the same thing to because they will not go to any other trap that I put out. It's a smart mouse!!

We have a gas furnace and a wood air tight. The airtight heats the main floor so HOT that the furnace never comes on which leaves the bedrooms and basement freezing. Can I buy a thermostat that will measure two areas and take an average ? Any other suggestions ?

I live in an apartment building and every time someone opens their door on my floor my door shakes. It happens to their doors as well. Is there something I can do to stop my door from shaking. Is there a strip I can put around the door to stop it from making that noise. Anything I can get from Home Depot that can stop this from happening?

Is it realy safe to have this in the house espeacaily if it smells like burning usualy??

Is there anything to help stop the smells like an air vent or somthen.

Thanks.

We have old wiring. 2 blacks and 2 whites. We changed to the 3 prong self grounding outlets. There is not a wire to wrap around the ground screw. Are they grounded?
