I am trying t find a rural proprty to rent in North Cumbria. We need either 4 bed, 1 reception or 3 bed, 2 reception room. With about 3-5 acres if possible, although we can cope without the land. We have 3 dogs and a cat, but they are all well behaved and we are willing to put down a large deposit. We are not too bothered about the conditition of the house, and as we are looking for a long term let, we are willing to make improvements to the house. Can anyone help?

But mine is dying and pathetic and lifeless?

Theirs is full of flowers and creepers that are brilliant greens, healthy and vibrant, mine, I water every day, give plant food and take care is wilting and browning and dying! Do I care too much? If I water them or if I don't, it's the same result, I don't have green fingers I have POISONED fingers!!! it drives me nuts!

(I'm in a tropical environment, yes my plants are tropical and in other's houses flourish with vigour, but mine? PAH! I'm well sick I tell you) :-(

I'm here in Jeddah right now. I'm not sure if our air in my room is actually dry coz, we don't have winter in here, during christmas, the coldest was about 10degree celsius. i just observed that i easilly got thirsty when i'm inside my room or i always have dry lips.

other info.

There is only small window in my room and most of the time closed.
I do smoke inside my room.
Always use A/C.

Question?
Are these things result to dry air?
what would be the best way to moisturize the air?

.. views of the mountains and the ocean in Africa. But secretly I've always wondered or wanted to live in a trailer park like a slob and drink beers and watch T. V. on my own without any one telling me what to do. Is this normal or is it (grass is always greener on the other side syndrome) got out of control?

Hi, i purchased a Whirlpool side by side refrigerator mid 2000 and to this day it is still running fine. However, we move around all the time and at one stage the fridge was left in storage for two years without ever being used as we went overseas, to my surprise it still worked perfectly two years later when i plugged it in. Since then we have moved another 3 times around NSW and the fridge still works great. I am now looking to purchase a second, smaller, fridge and i want it to be as durable as the Whirlpool, what should i look for as far as specs and things go?

this winter our electric bill has soared, we use only propane,kerosene or wood for heat. i called company and asked them which one was causing my bill to rise and they didnt have an answer just kept telling me it is colder this year then it was last year, and that our rates have not gone up. can someone figure out this for me? the reason we dont use electric heat is because of the rising electric cost but if this keeps up should we ditch the forms of heat or will it make it that much higher. i wish i knew because im tired of being half#$(*^% warm and paying a big bill.

Cuisinart® Chef's Classic™ Stainless 10-Piece Cookware Set - this is what I have on my wedding registry, but we may end up living in a house his parents rent and they just put in a flat top electric stove or whatever its called... I heard you have to be careful what type of pots you buy, some may not heat as well on that type of stove? I heard you need pots with a flat bottom, does it matter what material they are made out of? I just want to be certain because I love this set. Thanks!

I have found black spiders running on the ground of my new apartment from time to time (7 in two months!) that look suspiciously like black widows from what I have seen. I know nothing about this, and cannot read up on them because the pictures online with the sites make me hyperventilate and sick. I am terrified of spiders, but since I have only seen them scattering on the floor, I have the courage to squash them with shoes (better dead than not knowing where they are). I still can't stand pictures. PLEASE, PLEASE help! I need info on what these spiders are. (BTW, I live in NC).

I want to learn how to sew...I will need a sewing machine and I want a very basic, old style model. for some reason I think it would be best to learn on something very basic. One that is manual?

something like 50-100-200 years ago style....NOT VINTAGE, just simple....but that is inexpensive and will last a long time and not mess up my fabric. I want to master a simpler machine and develope skills and a few years down the line get a more modern one.

but for now, I would like a basic sewing machine. Can anyone reccomend one? It doesn't have to be by brand...I would rather go by price, and then simple model, then brand or whatever.

thanks

I am an old man that spends more time looking for things, than I do, doing things. And I thought of this Idea. If I had a Utility belt with the basic cleaning supplies. Like windex, cleaning rags, Etc. I could get more done as I walk around in this fog of mine trying to find things. I see alot of other things I need to do. But that would envole another search to locate the tools for that job which means I have to stop......What was I donig? So what should I put in my tool belt?
