My whole house is painted one color (which is a lite tan almost white). I want to repaint every room. – need some suggestions on colors. I have a living room with all brown leather furniture, kitchen with attached dining room black appliances with brown cabinets and table, laundry room, master bedroom brown suit, master bath, 6 year old girl bedroom with brown bed and dresser bedspread is polka dotted with yellow pink green blue dots and bathroom , and a band/computer room. Please give any suggestions that you have.
Sorry. The carpet is really light tan very neutral in every room

I know of 2 sisters in their 40s that have blinds and then taped up papers on their windows. Their apartment is completely pitch black inside even during the day time. Their furniture, kitchen table and everything is covered with sheets so you don’t know what’s what. If you have to go to their bathroom during the day like I said the hall is pitch blackand the rooms are a bit scary to walk into–very poor lighting.

They are always like this, so I am wondering why?
Is it normal? I mean this is how they live in utter darkness with everything covered up.

No they are not renovating or cleaning. They don’t do that. I am just wondering Can you explain in great detail?

It’s not a question of "are we ready?" I know we are ready.

Here’s a bit of a back story:
Me and my girlfriend (Ang) have been together for 2 1/2 years so far, and thing (especially lately) have been going wonderful! We sat down and talked about this situation many many times before finally deciding it was time to look for apartments. We’ve straightened out money issues in advance, divided up chores, costs, and just about everything else. We ARE ready to share our lives with eachother, but my question to you guys is:

What should we be preparing for? We already know just about everything about each others living habits already, we spend nearly every night together already. I’m well aware of the fact that you wont simply see the glamorous side anymore, but EVERY side.

And I’m also aware that costs will add up quick for small things like food, toilet paper, paper towels, soap, shampoo, and those kinds of things.

But maybe there’s something I’m overlooking, which is why I come to you.

PS. We already have all the essentials purchased, bedding, furniture, kitchen supplies (lots of those actually, we love to cook together) etc…

Thanks in advance.

Sincerely,

Corey

i had a co-worker and she is a nice women when we work together she usually talked to me until we got in trouble but she called me her work boyfriend. she got her own place and ive given her alot of things furniture kitchen stuff. she said when i make her laugh a couple times she said she loves me me but i don’t know what to think. recently she got fired from work we still talk i went to her house the other day for hay she went with me for 6 hrs bringing hay to her barn she does have a boyfriend but he is a lazy bastard. she mailed me the other day saying that she cant stand her boyfriend and wants out cant stand him but doesn’t want to hurt him. she tells people when she talks about me im hers things like that. im not sure if she truly likes me or using me for things. i don’t know any help would benefit thank you.

I have moved back in with my mom for a while to save money and have rented out a storage unit for all of my things (furniture, kitchen items, pictures, linens, etc). I went by there yesterday to get a couple of items that I needed and the first thing I saw upon opening the door (large, garage like roll-up door) is a black spider scurrying away… I stomped on it and then noticed the red spot. I squished it thoroughly and then got a better look – it was definitely a black widow with the tell-tale red hour glass on her abdomen. I immediately got the heebie jeebies, but went about getting the items and then left.
I would like to go back and repack some things into plastic rather than cardboard boxes, and clean out any webs that I find, but what kind of treatment can I use to ensure they don’t return? Do I need to clean out the entire unit and then repack it all? I don’t know that a bug bomb would be the best idea since it’s such an enclosed space and ALL of my things are jammed in tightly. My biggest fear is that when I finally get my own place again, I’m going to die of 100 spider bites when they all come rushing out of my sleeper sofa.
Also, is this something that needs to be reported to the management for them to take care of? (As far as spraying the entire facility)
I have been looking things up online, but all I have been able to find is "avoid storage units, spiders like them" … not so helpful in my situation.
Thanks in advance!

We’ve been married almost 10 years. We’re totally broke (part of the reason I’m doing this), so there is no land, no house, no massive savings or retirement accounts. We don’t have children, so there’s no need for child support, custody settlements, etc.

To simplify my papers, I’m only listing the things I want to be awarded. I figure he can have everything else.

We do own two dogs and I’ve specified that I want one, listed by name- will the judge want more clarification?

Here’s what else I’ve listed–
Furniture (kitchen table, a small recliner, a cherry desk-he can have the rather nice bedroom set, the other cherry desk)
Electronics (desktop computer- he can have the other laptops (3), TV, DVD/VCR, radio)
Books (my college books, set of nice leather bound- he can have everything else)
Housewares (a set of Christmas dishes- he can have the rest of the dishes and pots/pans)
Vehicles (’89 standard 2-door car, ’89 pickup.. he can have both)

Is there anything else I’m missing? Any suggestions would be helpful!! I don’t want to remember something AFTER I’ve filed.
be dead as in old and grey!
to vis-

"We’re totally broke (part of the reason I’m doing this), so there is no land, no house, no massive savings or retirement accounts."

In reality, together, we have less than total in savings.. and half of that is in an account under my name only.
to Truth Sets You Free–

Did I mention that we’re totally broke? He’s working 30 hrs/ week at minimum wage, and I’m truly hating the job-hunt…
Which reminds me- Monday I gotta call the temp service after I donate plasma for gas money.
Where was I?.. Oh, yes, getting an attorney- Yeah, if I had to wait till I could afford one of those, I’d probably be dead.
to Basicallycurious-
I know, but like I said, where I’m not employed, it’s really tough to feel like I can stand it long enough to get the money together for an atty.

To Doodlestuff-
I do know I need to have debt information.. is that just debt that has both our names on it? Thankfully (or not?) all of that is un-secured debt. Tax information… like tax debt? Good to know!

Thanks to both of you! Good things to remind me of!

My goal is to move out of my mom and dad’s house in 7 months. I want to start saving for all the furniture and other items I’ll need (nobody has anything free to give me) What are the essentials for a first time apartment? I already know about, bedroom set, living room furniture, kitchen table and chairs, cooking appliences and bathroom items (i.e. towels, rugs and shower curtins). Am I missing anything? And do you think putting away ,000 a month would be a reasonale if I plan to move out in 7 months? Does anybody know where I can get cheap but stylish furnitre? Sorry for all the questions.

My son turned 8 months old two days ago. He is crawling (run crawling) and is into EVERYTHING.
He crawls so fast he’s practically running on his knees. Now, he’s learned to pull himself up onto furniture.
We have a glass coffee table and he keeps pulling himself up on it so that he can stand and walk along the edges.
The problem is, the coffee table is very sharp!
I have removed the candles and coasters .. but is there anything I can put on the edges of the coffee table to prevent my son from hitting his head on the sharp edges?
He walks along the furniture (kitchen table, couches, recliner, etc.) and that’s not a problem .. those are safe. I’m just concerned about the edges of the coffee table.

Any suggestions on ‘baby-proofing’ the coffee table to eliminate the sharp edges??

Thanks. …

My sis and I are moving into an apartment that has 3 bedrooms. We need another tenant and one of my best girlfriends told us she was in, but right now she lives in a sorority and has an obligation to stay there until the end of the school year so for a month it will just be 2 of us. I have the master so I said I would pay more a month and she could pay less since she has the small room. We are bringing in all the furniture/kitchen needs and the washer and dryer. She has to pay her part of the deposit up front. But, should I be charging her more since she will be using our washer and dryer and kitchen/living room furniture? and — Should I tell her that she has to pay the first month’s rent or at least pay it back eventually? It makes sense to do that since im technically holding it for her for a month, but I don’t have anyone else lined up who could move in right away. I’m afraid if I make it more expensive for her she will back out and then we will be screwed to pay rent

My Mother in law is abused by his husband since last 40 years. She is not financially independent and so she keeps on complaining about her problems to his son ( my husband ). They live in India and my mother in law wants to be here in USA and my father in law doesnt want to be in USA because we dont tolerate his behaviour. So, my mother in law emotionally narrates her strories to his son. Now, my husband is encouraging his Mother to live separate and he wants to pay for her survival like rent of a house, furniture, kitchen accessories, TV, Fridge, Microwave, Washer dryer etc. And also he wants to give some 300 USD every month for her living expence. By doing this she will get her home separate and then she can move back and forth between USA and India and we will be paying her travel, medical expence. I think if she want to live separate from her husband then she should take help of lawyer and should ask for support money. Her son or we family are not responsible for her maintaince.
We are expecting and we recently got new house. my job is new and i work hard to save money and my husband just thinks of his mother. i dont mind in helping her but there is always a limit. Our priority should be new baby, not his Mom. She is her husband’s responsibilty. If she is not happy, she should fight for her rights in court rather depending on our money.

I want to buy home decor, furniture, kitchen cabinets at good price.

What are some good stores that I can get EVERYTHING for a new house (Furniture, kitchen things, bathroom thing, etc.) Thanks to everyone who answers!!!
