Home & Garden - 5 May 2007

However I've always heard clear yet sometimes solid sounds, even around 2 am, like dragging chairs or moving desks on the floor. I suppose they come directly from the roof, the 9th floor or another unit across the hall (Otherwise how can they be clear?). I told our security service about this, but they couldn't explain why. "Can anyone in any related field share professional experiences on my concern?"

I don't have any yet, but I want to do something to make sure they don't mess with my tomato plants, so that if they do come they will have to leave, any suggestions?

One day I flushed my toilet - there was nothing in it but water - and it overflowed. Ever since then, whenever I flush it, it goes to overflow, and if I let it sit, the water level goes way down. It's not clogged, so I don't know what it's overflowing. Do I need to replace the whatchamacall it (rubber thing on the bottom) or what? It's making me angry.

What is the best way to clean a new wood floor ( chocolate color) in order to avoid those ugly shoe marks when you walk in it? If i do not find a good remedy then I will repent of installing it!!! I clean it every day with a good wood floor cleaner but in the evening it's all dirty again.

We planted two Japanese Maples last month and on the advice of people answering questions here, we used some root generator (or stimulator??). It has rained a lot here lately and we were wondering if we should continue using it for the first year or if it is good now...there ARE new leaves on both of them.

I'm getting ready to dig a big hole in my yard. I assume the safe this to do would be to have my underground utility lines marked, right? Who would I call to do that? Does ti cost money?

I have a small city yard (maybe 200 sq ft or less, haven't measured yet) that is badly in need of new grass. I'd like to lay sod. I know you have to dig up old grass, till, roll, etc., but is this something that I should hire someone to do, or can I do it myself on a weekend (renting equipment from Home Depot)? Also, are some types of sod better than others? (I live in Wisconsin).

My fiance and I need to save some major money in the next little while, problem is- He got a surprise pay cut about a month after I quit my job to be a stay at home mom with our 5 yr old, and I am pregnant with our second baby. Before the pay cut, it would have been fine financially. Now, with me being 31 wks preg, we're in a tight spot.
I need any and all tips on how we can save some money, not necessarily to bank right now, but to live on.
If you have any ways we can save on everyday items and chores, let me know! I mean stuff like cooking, cleaning, pet care (3 cats, 1 dog), groceries, stuff like that. Since I am a stay at home mom I do have more time to spend "being frugal". We don't eat out much at all, live rural so don't do anything pricey for entertainment ($5 movie 2x a month), I use baking soda to clean, line dry our clothes, and try to use everything in our pantry before buying more... help! Fiance is freaking out about money!

Would it matter if it was a delicate cycle, and it was hung to dry? Does it also matter what kind of dry clean only clothes? Like, a pair of somewhat dressy pants compared to like, a jacket?
