I am just curious, I have seen nurseries divide up their plant lists by Trees, Shrubs, and then "Perennials" and groundcovers and then of course annuals and vines, etc.
But my confusion is why they seperate "Perenials" from flowering shrubs. Because many of the thing they usually have listed under "Perenials" are looking like flowering shrubs to me.
Same confusion with groundcovers

Should you dry all of your clothes together in the dryer OR should you separate the whites from the colored clothes before drying? I don't want to have colors run on the whites and I don't want lint on my colored clothes either.

I am buying a house and the furnace is old. I have heard new furnaces cost a fortune since they need all new exhaust tubing. Can one get an old refurbished furnace? If you can, how much do they usually go for (preferably in Canadian currency) ? Thanks a bunch!

We are looking into buying a home with a corner fireplace in the family room. We'd like to put our entertainment center in there as well. I'm just not sure how to arrange our furniture to enjoy the beautiful fireplace, yet still make sense for watching TV. It seems they can't both be the focal point, so I'm stumped. Any ideas or links to suggested furniture layouts would be appreciated, thank you.

Hi there! I know how to mop a floor, but, I am wondering how to rinse the soapy water you put on the floor to clean it? It seems to me that mopping just moves dirty water around? Any tips on how to rinse?

I have been crying in front of my computer and some tears hit the keyboard. They are dry now but there are stains where they were.
How do I remove them?

Hey All,
We just bought a house, and it has a SMALL laundry area (basically just HD Hookups) in the pantry area off the kitchen.

i would like to move the machines about 12-15 feet into the garage.

however, i do not want to alter the current placement of the hookups, if / when we sell, the future owners might want their machines inside.

So, i know i will have to drill through the wall into the garage, im ready for that, but what do i do about the washing machine water inlet hoses, and drain?

And for the dryer, how do i extend the power cord?
Our garage has vents that i can use to vent the dryer..

Is this a DIY project, or should i hire someone? im pretty handy around this place..

Thanx,

I've tried bleach and vinegar but it still stays the ivory/light tan colour and I really want to get it back to it's original bright white as it has only been washed once. It is possible with nylon and elastaine clothing?

My stove/oven is about 8 years old. I have already replaced the lower oven element once about 2 years ago. Now it appears to need replacing again. Is this normal or could there be a short that is causing these to fail? Should I replace the element again or get a new stove?
