ive thought about a dark espresso brown or a cream color? but im not sure what other colors might look better. theres a ton of trim in this room--the house ie very old and has huge baseboards, crown molding and elaborate door and window frames. theres also a built-in window seat--should it be painted the same as the rest of the trim? also, ceilings are 9'6" high

I am buying a furniture set in perfect condition. The only problem is it looks like something from the Golden Girls. Besides updating the handles I don't know what to do. The headboard has this gold band down the middle which matches the handles. I dont think I can paint because it is so glossy. All ideas appreciated, thanks!

I noticed yesterday that the freezer was not freezing, the food in the freezer was thawing out. The refrigerator is somewhat cold, but the freezer is just not working properly. Is it cheaper to get repaired or to just get a new one. The refrigerator is about 12 years old.

It seems like they only are being done on the west or east coasts- I'm in Upper Michigan and I definitely have a challenge for them. But, you never see anything in our neck of the woods. I have been to their web pages and they limit the areas that they go to.

I have a question about my air conditioner pipe on the outside---pvc pipe--- I have 2 labs and I was wondering how I could go about avoiding the constant destruction of that little piece of pvp pipe--- They are constantly ripping the whole freakin' thing off. Beatting them is not the answer and if that is your response, don't waste your time. We have tried "Bitter Apple" and that doesn't work. Serious help. And can we use the heat? What is the actual function of the pipe during the winter???

For some reason, my roommate has been asking me to help him find a plant called salvia divinorum locally. Does anybody know any local retail stores or what kind of stores would have it?

I have a rose at the moment, and I really don't want it to die. At the same time, I don't want to have to go to the store to buy flower food (unless it's my only option.)

Is there anything I could use around the house or something to keep it alive?

Any ingredient to make flower food for the rose?

I heard cold water might do, but it's not exactly helping. It's still living, but slowly dying.
