My problem in my room is my clothes. I am never home, and am always out the door, so taking the time to hang and fold clothes has been a struggle for me and I'm sick of having them lay there for over a week until the pile dwindles as I wear them. Does anyone have any tips that can motivate me to put up my clothes? Should I get a dresser? Is hanging them all easier?

We have a hotwater system in the house. During cold season, while washing my face, brushing my teeth or shaving, I wait for hotwater to come, I know this is a waste of good water, but if hotwater came upon turning my tap, I would not need to waste any water. I do feel very guilty about it but have not been able to think of a solution. Can anybody help me?

I have a 15amp circuit breaker serving a circuit which connects 2 outlets in 2 different bathrooms. The only think attached to the outlet is a 4-watt night light.

Yet every other week this circuit breaker trips and upon a reset of it, power comes back to the night lights.

How do I fix this?

i installed some low voltage track lighting with the flex track and it looks awesome. the problem i am having is it goes out after about 35-45 minutes. the main unit attached to the ceiling box gets very hot. after it cools down it works again.

The directions state if something gets hot, it needs to be tightened. the cap for the main ceiling unit snugs up but doesnt sit exactly right on the threads. is this the problem or is it something else? Help!

I should like to abolish that silly little thing called the remote. It has bred a generation of couch potatoes and encourages sheer laziness. What is so awful about getting up from the couch and turning a knob? This is what we used to do and it worked fine: no more tedious menus and sub-menus or losing the stupid remote down the back of the chair, or wherever and one could easily switch the damned TV, or whatever off, thus saving energy. I cannot buy any decent piece of consumer electronics with knobs on. Bring back the knob, I say. I like a good knob that you can get hold of.

We had a lot of storms yesterday causing the power to go out a few times.. this morning I drained the hot tub, and before that I shut off the hot tub from the fuse box, the only place I can. Next, i filled it back up, but when I went to hit the fuse to turn it back on (I guess its a circut breaker? Kinda like a lightswitch, but sideways) It clicked to on, then it clicked back into the middle. I tried again to turn it off, then on, and it went back into the middle. Now, what would cause this and how do I get my hot tub working? What can I do?!
