I'm expecting a baby and still living at home with mom and dad. it would be too costly to move out at this point because my partner and i are still in college. for this reason baby and i will be sharing a room. my bedroom is somewhat small and now i will have to put in a baby crib and other necessary things for the baby. i don't want the room to be cluttered and also baby safe. what are some good ways to maximize the space. The only thing i can think of is moving my television off of the floor and mounting it on the wall to clear up some floor space. What else can i do?

I am interested in one with good filtration and flexibility in movement. A canister would probably be better than an upright to get to places like corners. If bagless, how do you deal with the dust when it's emptied?

The oven is supposed to be self cleaning, but I don't want to do it that way because I don't have the manual. It's an old Kenmore and I don't know the model number. Can I used Easy-off oven cleaner and do it the old fashioned way?

I am a bit concerned about taking a load bearing wall down, although it is done by a bricky with 20 years experience, and the job is done with all the right materials and with care, would you please give me your view on this subject so that my mind can be at peace.

I was doing some gardening when I heard a GIANT buzz whosh by my ear! Thinking it was a bee, I screeched, ducked, and turned around only to find a hummingbird about 3 feet away staring at me while it hung in mid-air. I think it was smirking. Why was it so interested in me!!??

I have a problem with poison ivy growing along the outskirts of my property and I can't find anything that has worked well to kill it. Many products will slow its growth or kill it out for the season but it just comes back stronger the next time. Itching in Virginia

Ahh!! I have hyperhydrosis (over sweating disorder) and after awhile all the sweat makes my clothes smell gross. I've heard vinegar works if you put some in the washer with your clothes but i don't know. I could also use other ideas. Thanks.

off the mildew that has accumulated between the tiles? I can't use any product that contains bleach because that would discolor the marble, and plain soap and water just doesn't do it.

We want to plant a small evergreen on either side of our baby's grave. The cemetery is sunny and VERY windy (it's on the prairie). Can anyone suggest a hardy little evergreen plant that is also a perennial that would grow well in such a location?

when a plant's instructions say "give about an inch to an inch and a 1/2 a week" does that mean only give it an inch of water or make sure it always has an inch of water in there. it's a gerbera daisy plant by the way and it keeps drooping =(
