It is 20 years old and won't chime on the hour, but chimes on the 1/4 hour, 1/2 hour and 3/4 hour. When I get it re-synchronized so it rings the 1/4 hour on the 1/4 hour, the half hour on the half hour, etc., it gets off by 1/4 hour again when it won't chime on the hour. I have oiled it according to directions, have made sure it is level on the floor and done everything else I was supposed to do, which I usually do when the time changes from standard to daylight savings or back. The only thing I can say is that changing it off daylight savings time last weekend messed it up some how. It never had messed it up all the other times in 20 years, so I'm really puzzled as to what to do.

For right now everything is under $20.00, but in the future there will be other items for more. So my domain name should be something I can use from now on. The items are new and will be shipped to wherever you want. I have seasonal items as well as anything you need all year long for gifts for someone or yourself.

I REALLY REALLY wish roaches would get extincted already. They are no help or otherwise they are useless. I find them in my house mostly in the winters and my house is clean!! So idk what to do. And this is funny. Whenever I see a roach, I jump on a table and SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAMMMMMM. I have no clue why I'm so afraid of them! I just wish they would all die. But I'm not afraid of spiders or ants or anything. Cept bees. I can't stand them. Anyways, today I thought I saw a roach on the ground while I was walking to the kitchen, and so I screamed and jumped on the kitchen table (gross!) and screamed "MOMMY HELP ME, ROACH!!" LMFAO. (I'm 16 by the way) And my mom came running in the kitchen and she saw the so called "roach" and picked it up! And when she put it close to my face, it was a feather, from my bird!! I was so embarrassed, but luckily, I only live with my mom. Turns out I was scared of a feather. Amusing..

I have a King Sized Iron bed, which consists of two metal L-shaped rails running down the sides, each roughly 1 inch wide, whcih came with several wooden slats to rest between them.

The mattress I bought was a pocket-sprung mattress (to avoid back problems from an old, spring one). This means direct pressure on the mattress passes through to the slat(s) directly below (rather than spreading out my weight across the slats). So if myself and my pertner lean too hevily on the same slat(s) they bend too much and "pop" through the frame. This happens far too easily and too often, just turning onto my side must be done with care !

This has been getting worse over time. Could this be because I need to buy new slats ? Or can I get more solid slats ? I have been to a lumber merchant to ask about "a more sturdy, denser" type of wood, but they looked at me as if I was mad ! Bascially I need wood slat that can support two people across the 6 foot width of my bed.

Please help me get more sleep !

I am planning to install a furnace humidifier soon. My son has asthma and is very sensitive to dry air. One concern I have is whether the furnace humidifier will grow mold inside the furnace, the humidifier itself or grow mold inside the house. I know that mold is not good for the people with asthma either. I hope that someone with a furnace humidifer can tell me his expereince. Much appreciated. Thanks.

Does anyone have any nifty thrifty ideas or things they have done to winterize their home and/or lessen gas or energy bills... Keep in mind that I have somewhat limited funds I can't immediately do engage in any elaborate projects but I'll keep them in mind if you can suggest any. Anything that can cut down on my spending or any energy efficient appliances, BE SPECIFIC, as I mentioned in my previous question I'm a babe in the woods on this one I might not understand all the mumbo jumbo and terminology. Bear with me please and once serious answers only please! Thanks and GOD bless!

Seem to me that Forced-Air is the worst for allergies. Hot water Baseboard is good but more expensive to install. And Radiant is the most expensive to install, and if there's a problem with it, you have to break open the foundation to fix it. Also we want to put real solid hardwood floors, and those are not compatible with In-Floor Radiant Heating.

I am leaning toward either Forced-air or Hot Water Baseboard.

Which is better?
