Other - Home & Garden - July 2006

I didn't want to but it was massive (you know the sort - I could actually count the hairs on its legs!) and it was heading towards my bed so I had no time to fetch the hoover (my usual weapon of choice). I took no pleasure in killing the spider especially as it made a revolting crunching sound as it squished and I then had to clear up the mess (ewww). Any suggestions as to how I could deal with a similar situation in the future?? There is no way I could pick up a spider of those dimensions with my bare hands.

my garage occording to my neighbour is built right on the boundary of our adjoining properties and thats where he says the new fence should go. However I say it should go 6 inched further back as to do it his way would mean the gutter on my garage is actually overhanging his property--I didn't think this was allowed.
Anyone out there with any knowledge of boundary fence regulations.

they are after the water and mud. they trample the plants and push over the small trees. I would eat them if I could but I never see more than the tracks.

My room, is japanese inspired and has a minimalistic design. I thought that the best window treatment would be a tan or cream valance, to keep the minimalistic feel. Is just a valance too harsh? What should I use for window treatments? Help me please!

It's supposed to be quite warm and humid in my area this weekend and I just have a few fans and one measly-crappy window air conditioner. So any suggestions or is this a dumb question??

Hello to all, one of those 'just in case' questions. I'm moving to Columbia, SC in about 10 days (about 85% done, but feels like I've been packing forever), from Miami, FL. I have family there & since I'm the last one left in Miami, it was decided that I should be there. (mostly because of health reasons... plus I'm tired of Miami) So I've purchased a condo (haven't actually seen it yet... my aunt found it, cousins are painting, cleaning, etc., & the closing was done via e-mail, fax & overnight delivery) I just need to get me, my car, & the incredible amount of stuff I've accumulated over the last years, up there. (PODS, auto transport & Amtrak) I've driven through the state many years ago, but don't really know it at all. I'll be moving specifically to 'Point Arcadia'. Just wondering if anyone lives there, has lived there, has an opinion or anything that might help me deal with the upcoming 'move/culture shock'. Much appreciated & thank you in advance..... Peace & God Bless, f
