no matter how hard I seem to try, my house always seems messy, not filthy, just untidy.
I share with my son, so he doesn't help, but I always seem to have to clean up and tidy up all around. Am I just disorganised? lazy? does anyone else suffer like this? I suppose a full time job doesn't help, any suggestions?

I live in Accrington in the North West and I'm looking for a company in the area that sells and delivers reconditioned washing machines. Mine's just died and being so close to x-mas I can't really afford a brand new one. Any suggestions?

My fiance and i have been living together for 1 year and a half. everything is great, but i am fed up with his messiness. everyday is the same routine. he gets off work, and messes the place up. i can't stand the wet towels on the floor, his work clothes strewn everywhere, bags of chips and soda cans on the floors, the list goes on and on...trust me. i've tried talking to him, and he will help for a few days, but then it's back to the same old thing again. i feel like i am cleaning 24/7....it gets so frustrating to the point that it brings tears to my eyes at times because i hate my house being messy after i cleaned it all day. friends say men are just slobs, but is there any way to get him to start helping around the house>

I am not a very smelly guy, and I just started going to a laundromat to do my laundry. The armpits of my t-shirts smelled afterwards the last two times I washed/dried there. The second time I used some extra detergent and even switched brands. What is a possible cause of this problem? Or is this normal, as the smell pretty much went away after the shirts cooled down the second time. Any help is appreciated as I am planning on doing a couple loads tomorrow.

I bought these really expensive sheets, and expected to be getting something really comfortable. They were suppose to be 100% egyptian combed cotton. A couple of months latter, and a few washings, they are covered with little balls. Is there a way to get rid of them, and what causes this to happen. Thanks

After school, I was fooling around with my friends and this kid whose my friend was drinking his powerade or gaterade ( I'm not sure which one it was ) and I hit the bottle making it get all over his face and jacket.
It was funny, I'm not going to lie.

And then he said, this stuff stains, so if it does you owe me a new jacket.


Does it stain?
Ahhh.

I wore my baseball cap while running a marathon recently, and now it has sweat stains on it. Is there a way I can wash it without ruining the shape or having to hand wash it? Will sweat stains even come out?

Ok, I'm 14, my parents smoke in the house, so most of my stuff smells like smoke, and ppl are picking on me at school for it and it is embarrassing, cuz when I turn around in the halls ppl behind me are covering their noses. It's mostly my backpack that smells like cigarettes. 1) Will putting it in the dryer help? 2) Febreeze is making it worse. Is there anything else that will help the smell? Thank you all SO much.
