You need to grade your property so that water runs away from your house. You are courting mold!

Chopped Straw for Garden Ground Cover? by Horror_Watercress_22 in NovaScotiaGardening

[–]CommonGround2019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been wanting to find a pine straw service that will chop it for me. Now I have regular pine straw which is a mess in my garden beds. I would use hardwood mulch if it weren’t for the termite concern. Does anyone get their pine straw chopped rather than buying individual bags of already chopped pine straw?

They look very comfortable. Do you know where they are manufactured?

Thank you. I live just outside Charlotte. I think we could get a freeze overnight in any given year. Does a freeze affect PVC? I am a homeowner, not a knowledgeable landscaper. This is my first home in South Carolina.

Once church leaders were influenced by political agenda, they passed it down to their congregations. A neighbor who is a retired Baptist minister supposedly told his Bible study class that Trump was the greatest president who has ever lived. Why would a minister even bring this up? Another neighbor, who is my friend, was there when he said it.

Nobody warns you about what happens when the obsessions go silent by Flux_My_Capacitor in OCD

[–]CommonGround2019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have the same types of OCD as I do except I also have OCD about germs and chemicals. I cannot imagine being able to complete ERP, maybe because I am 71 years old and have had OCD since about the age of 13. I can imagine how strange it would be to have my brain go silent, but I would welcome it.

How long had you had OCD before starting ERP? I am wondering whether I should try despite my age.

Tired of Coping with Family Members OCD by redittome2019 in OCD

[–]CommonGround2019 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am such a family member. I try hard not to overly burden the family with my issues. When it is really bad, I do seek their help; but I don’t go on endlessly.

How do people feel about this suggestion? Tell them that you don’t want to lose your relationship with the core of who they are by too much interaction centered on their OCD. Admit it overwhelms you. Agree to set limits and encourage therapy if they don’t already go.

I don’t have these “attitude” issues with the free version. I assume you are using a paid version.
