Despite our wet season, the tree is mainly bare except for near the top. I do not see any pecans on the ground, or on it's branches.

Does this mean no pecans this year? :(

I had a Halloween party last year and purchased the Visual Effects Super Fogger V-950 (around 300$) I used it once poured out the remaining fog liquid and stored it over the summer. I plan on having another party this year.. took out the fogger and it produced no fog what so ever.. I don't know if it is clogged.. I can't find manufacturer information.. I was wondering if any one had any helpful ideas..
Thank you!

I received a 100% lambs wool blanket as a wedding gift from a friend in Scotland and over 3 years it's gotten some spots and needs a wash. What products are recommended for wool? I know for diapers they make lanolin based shampoos and conditioners since wool is hair, or is there a similar "people" shampoo that's easier to get. I do know the No Heat, Air Dry rules for washing. I'm just trying to get an idea as to what is the very best way to care for it as I can't fly overseas to replace it and it means a lot to me. Thanks in advance for advice and suggestions.

This morning when I went to put my garbage in the can, there was a really big one about 5 feet from me. We have plenty of squirrels around, but they usually are in my tree. It finally ran, but I was surprised it let me get so close before it moved. Should I be concerned about it attacking me or my dog? I know they are just looking for food, and I don't mind having them in my tree. Any info out there?

Okay folks, I have about 1500 sq ft of tile to lay down and I need to hear some opinions. I already have a tile saw that I used for a portion of one of the bathrooms. The thing about that is the fact that it was very messy and also very tedious. I am now debating on buying a manual tile cutter, you know the ones that you score the tile and then break it. I want to know what you all think. Should I go ahead and buy it to save myself the hassle of the mess, noise, and time it takes to walk outside to cut every tile. Please respond quickly as I am in the process of the project as I write this.

I was given these steps. Please confirm whether or not its correct.

1) Turn power off.
2) Turn water off at valve above water heater.
3) Hook hose to drain.
4) Turn drain valve on.
5) Turn faucets on "hot."
6) Wait until there's no water draining out of hose (about 20 minutes)
7) Close valve on tank and unhook hose
8) Turn water back on
9) Wait at faucets; air will be spitting out.
10) Turn faucets off after it runs water about 30 seconds.
11) Turn power on.

Thanks!
