I work full time, have a 30 minute commute each way. I have 8 grandchildren who love to come to my house, but aren't the best at picking up after themselves. My husband helps sometimes, but isn't always available. I feel swamped. I need suggestions on how to make the most of my time cleaning.

If it's chain-link (and I can't see it being anything else) wire-cutters will do the job in 2 shakes of a lamb's tail. What use is fence with holes in it? Sounds a waste to me.

Hii!

I'm a new homeowner - 22 - and am trying to get everything that I need for my home. I want to make sure that I have the essentials for the kitchen, living room, and bathrooms. I've been making lists, and then when I go into a store I feel overwhelmed and walk out with almost nothing. I have bedroom furniture and will be purchasing living room furniture as well as a kitchen table this coming weekend. It's the "small" things that I'm clueless on. So far I have purchased a vacuum, cutting board, cutlery, dinnerware, flatware, paper towel holder, floor lamp, toaster, microwave, blender, and I even started making a list of things I believe that I need. Any help that I could get would be greatly appreciated!!

My whole-house humidifier gets its water from a saddle clamp-mounted self-piercing needle valve installed on a copper water pipe. My previous humidifier did, too, but when the plumbers installed the new one, they said they couldn't get any water from the original one, so they put in a new one. No big deal - the old one had been there for 12 - 15 years. Now, after just two (2) years, the new needle valve seems to be clogged. I have screwed it all the way out, all the way in, and everywhere in-between. Is this normal? Any tricks to unclog it?
Thanks

I'm a relatively new home owner. my house is pretty normal, two-stories, a basement and an attic. With winter coming I'm looking to keep my heating costs down as much as possible. I know heat rises so it seems the attic is pretty important. There are vents in the front and the back of my attic approx 18inches by 24 inches. So when I go up into my attic it is nearly as cold as outside because there is cold blowing through it. I checked and I dont see any way to close these vents. And I think I've heard that they are necessary to be open even in the middle of winter for some reason that I dont remember. I do have insulation in my attic but I dont know how good it is, probably at least 20 years old. Is it normal to have this much cold air blowing thru my attic? and if not should I somehow try to cover one or both of these vents? what are the vents for?
