I don't care how big it is, what pot size, or anything else. Just needs to be a Blue Plumbago.

I want to decorate my daughters room. I can't draw and I would like to add birds, clouds and different characters on her walls. Is there a website or a store where I can buy the stencils and just paint them in myself?

I leave my kitchen light on all evening, it is a fluorescent tube. I know they take more energy turning them on, that why i do it, but is there a time limit where it becomes uneconomical to leave it on and should be turned off. e.g if i know i will be away from it for an hour, will it take more energy turning it off and on again later than just leaving it on?

okay i have hot water and cold water at every part of my trailer except in the kitchan. The facet in the kitchen and the dishwasher has absoloutly no water coming from my hot water side but water on the side with the cold water ive felt the pip underneith the sink the hot water pipe feels nutral but the cold water is well cold feeling.. at both ends of the house there is both cold and hot running water is it possible that it can be frozen under the trailer in just one spot? or could it be something else. Can pipes be frozen inside a house? I took a blow drier to it for a few min and their was no difference. We had been letting the cold water in the sink drip and only cold water so the pipes would freeze could that be the prob.... HELP

I bought a used Toro 10 HP snow blower electric start. It had been stored in my outside shed for about a year. Went to start it up and it runs in high rev and won't come down to a normal speed. Any suggestions as to what may be wrong (choke seems to be okay) and how to fix.

I have a leaking (not running) toilet. Most of the time after I flush water continues to seep into the bowl without a sound (that's why I say it's not running). I haven't sat there and watched it for hours but I have noticed that usually right after I flush it the water will still flow in leak in but I notice that the amount seems to get less and less over the next few hours and eventually none is leaking in. There are also times that it never stops seeping or I notice it does not leak in at all. About six months ago the problem was much worse and I replaced the flapper that covers the hole where the water from the tank runs into the bowl but I guess this hasn't really solved the issue. This is very frustrating because the water bill was $600 and this has to be the culprit. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
