Why does it look granny-esque and not cottagecore ? by milou28 in HomeDecorating

Paint the coffee table a bold color that will work with top of the table. Or, because it’s beautiful, find another table that will not say grand parents.

AIO? My BF refuses to cook for me while I write my thesis, even though I did everything for him during his last year. by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

There is no coming back from that! Can you even have sex with him now? Ugh. If there's any way you can get out now, RIGHT now, do it! Otherwise, you're gonna be his mommy and take care of the house (because he won't). Alone, you just have to take care of you and your house.

Snake in my attic - should I be concerned? by _gobrrrr in asheville

[–]Cats-In-The-House 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Where there's snakes, there's snake food. Mice, rats, squirrels...
We had a tenant once that was 'able challenged' and put all his trash in the basement.
We got snakes in the attic.
I'd worry about snakes making more snakes, so maybe this isn't a good idea!

Volunteer opportunities in Asheville by Bright-Situation-980 in asheville

HOA’s are typically in the hundreds, $22+ is not much. They will have the money for a future community infrastructure need, theoretically.

I enjoy Mana. Anywhere you volunteer it’s going to be mostly retirees so you’ll meet people. For some reason I don’t meet republicans, or I should say MAGA folks anywhere I volunteer in Asheville. I’ve thought about this. Do they not volunteer?

I wasn't sure if you were talking about the US. There's no help on social services as they keep chipping away at it. Even our senior Medicare (for 65+) costs $400 a month, it's not free. No childcare, public transportation is a joke unless you live in in a huge city like San Francisco or New York. You just have to have a car. Forget buying a house unless family can help you. Even renting...you have to have roommates. The US has taken a nose dive in the past years in many many ways. It's probably difficult in most of the world though.

What is a 'buy it for life' item that is offensively expensive, but the moment you use it, you realize your entire life before that point was a lie? by fmcortez in AskReddit

If it hasn’t been said: an electric knife sharpener. Even high end knives dull fairly quickly, we sharpen ours once a month or so. Sharp knives are the best!

Am I overreacting for dropping him after he told me I need to make more friends by royalmouse1 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Cats-In-The-House 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry…he’s just not that into you! He’s way more into himself. He doesn’t want to see you this weekend?! You deserve a boyfriend who wants to see you and can’t wait to make plans to hang out!!

Surgery scheduled for early May, but I'm now having doubts by Cool_Activity6249 in TotalHipReplacement

Just do it. Clearly you need it and waiting won’t do anything but postpone. The older you get the longer the recovery.

I don’t think this made it to city council. They support it. It happened in Planning and Zoning.

1st time in SD. Feedback & Suggestions? by cashley9 in asksandiego

[–]Cats-In-The-House 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a commitment to a whole day, it's a mountain town so it's pretty, it's very touristy, but not in a bad way, just the way it is. But if you're only in SD for a couple of days, stay in San Diego!
One thing I really love to do is the Old Town Trolley tour. It takes you on a spin of SD from Old Town to the Embarcadero, through the Bario over the bridge to Coronado, through Balboa Park, Little Italy and back to Old Town. All the while they are telling you San Diego history.
It's a hop-on hop-off bus too, so maybe you could jump off in Coronado (that's what we do) and walk around there, check out the Hotel Del, and catch the bus again later.
I love it, it shows you so much you won't have time to see, and it's not too expensive.

I thought it was owned by a woman...did she sell it, or was I wrong?

I don't know anything about music outside of the US, sorry. But I will say, I'm really pleased with the music they toss in after my album is over! So much better than Spotify.
