My housemates don't seem to believe me when I tell them that it's best to leave the windows slightly open when they've used the bathroom or they are cooking in the kitchen. I thought this was common sense... clearly not! Our walls are starting to go mouldy and they are all just saying it must be because it's been raining recently!!!!!

What kind of fastener would one use to mount a heavy shelving unit to a concrete basement wall? And how does one go about mounting such a unit without doing damage to the wall? Is concrete like would in that it will not crack or chip so long as one makes a pilot hole almost as wide as the particular bolt? What precautions are neccessary?

I started smelling and hearing something in my bathroom from the otherside of the house...

I go up and check whats up, there is water everywhere, it's soaking up.. I see water spraying from the back of my toilet...

I layed about 40 towels around the place and now Im freaking out..

I turned off all the water to the house, but I have no idea how to fix this thing?

Any ideas what it could be? And do you think it would require some assistance from an expert?

I need help! I painted a wall in my house with a dark color, with flat paint. The first coat went on well, but was a little too thin. I got help applying the second coat from a friend, and he put it on too thick. You can now see the roller marks on the wall. How do I fix this? I still have some paint left, but I'm worried that painting it again may make it worse.

Last night my roomate & I used a box of light brown hair color and somehow ended up getting some color on the back of one of our kitchen chairs. It is a light wood color and we're not really sure how to get it to come off beside getting some sandpaper and hoping it's the same color wood underneath...
Any ideas would really help, Thank you!

Help! Mother in law is making it hard to look forward to the holidays!?
My huband and I were recently married in September of this year. We have been together for 6 years. My mother in law is all of a sudden making a big deal about the holidays. For instance she wanted us to go to her house this year for Thanksgiving and go to my moms next year.My husband told her this wasn't going to work because we want to be with both sides for the holidays. I offered to do Thanksgiving at my house so that we could all be toghether and she wouldn't have to feel that the holidays are a big rush. She refused my offer. So I thought we agreed on splitting the holiday we would go to her house at 11am and have appitizers with her. Her dinner was in the middile of the day and this year was our year to have dinner with my parents because last year we only got to spend a few hours at my moms. The night before Thanksgiving my MIL called my husband to discuss Thanksgiving and he must have told her agian about how our day was planned we would show up at 11 have appitizers and spend

time with them and then leave at 4 to make diner at my mothers house. She was doing dinner at 5. My mother in law blew up. Don't even bother coming I can't believe your not eating here you do everything with her family. Blaah Blahh Blahh. She said not even to bother to come come next year to her house only so she can get her full Thanksgiving. Which I refuse to do and she doesn't respect that. She then said that we always run out on her to get to my moms which is untrue we were spending most of the day with her. The next year we would eat our main meal with her. She was so upset she hung up on him and he was so upset at her that we didn't go. They didn't talk for a week and when they did he opologized for not being there and she was still feeling the same way and said that . everything was about me and my mother. That is also untrue we tried working it out with her. 1. I offered to do thanksgiving so that nobody was torn away. 2. I my mom doesn't care about the time you do dinner but

if you could do your thanksgiving at lunch time or dinner time everything would work out alot better. She likes to have hers smack dab in the middle of the day. I don't know what to do about her she is starting to cause problems between me and my husband and he doesn't want me to say anything to her. She can't respect us as a married couple she wants everything her way. I am starting to really dislike her. What do I do. She also says that discussing the holidays is between her and my husband. That really pissed me off and I would really like to confront her on that. I feel like the main issue is is that she feels she has lost all control I think she is really jelous of my mother and what she has done for me and my husband. I know this seems really long and not put together well but its really upseting me and I have gotten good responses on here other times
