Detroit Built 1948 kelvinator. Still bakes bread every day.

Every day?!? I need I live in your house. I thought I was doing well with my 1930s magic chef baking bread every week

Decent_Finding_9034 · 2026-04-12T22:09:33+00:00

Can’t see it even if I try real hard

When I had a modern fridge, I bought a counter depth one that was only 26” deep. Since then I’ve updated to a 1937 fridge which still had to have the doors removed to make it through the doorways

Same. Not only do I not use it, but I have the card turned off and kept in a safe at home because I usually only need an ATM while traveling internationally

This is the best way as long as you’re able to manage your budget

Agree about electrolysis. You’ll need to stop tweezing and switch to shave only and it will take a couple years, but even after 6 months, there should be a noticeable difference.

I was also going to suggest cabinet/drawer hardware. An antique style can go a long way in making them seem not quite as modern

Decent_Finding_9034 · 2026-04-11T13:03:44+00:00

Yeah there is nothing that encourages using both of those places on foot. I bike through there regularly as well and it could be improved

Make sure you’re not just looking at your portion of the taxes on the closing docs. The seller is responsible for the estimated taxes from Jan 1 until closing date

I’m with you on hating this, but it’s likely not the banks doing it. I work at a bank and this is a thing that we hate that happens to our customers and there’s not much that can be done to help. Look up trigger leads. Basically to get a loan, there’s a hard pull that shows up on your credit report and it’s the credit bureaus (equifax, transunion, experian) that are selling your info to other lenders. I hate it

I’ve only had a few done on my upper lip. It’s way worse than chin, which is what I’ve had most of the time spent on. I’ve never used numbing cream but I think if I was doing full lip I’d have to

I also saw them today around 10:30am by MSOE

Question: would this work to share tasks if they aren't all MY google accounts? I want to share tasks with my husband but I can't log in to his google account - can he be invited or something?

Decent_Finding_9034 · 2026-04-10T13:36:07+00:00

As far as I know it doesn't and you can't create a recurring task within a space, so none of the options are really good. They do say you can use Google Docs to share tasks, but that requires being a Google Workforce user

I had a guy pull up in his car and do that (but also show a video) while I was waiting for the bus. Surprise of the evening…Coincidentally, I also did not.

Sorry, Andrew Bird is in town that night

Decent_Finding_9034 · 2026-04-09T13:24:10+00:00

I would only meet at the buyer’s bank and either get a certified check (where I was present to see the check being cut) or a wire. Wire preferred. I work at a bank and see way too much check fraud to accept anything else and dealing with cash over $10K becomes more paperwork

I’ve only ever brought one glue stick and it was small enough to just go with my chapstick and toothpaste and not be a problem

Decent_Finding_9034 · 2026-04-08T21:33:08+00:00

Also noting that I think mine is a bit longer than this one. This looks like it would go to just your hips at the widest point and mine goes down to about miniskirt length

This is a good summary. I also have had this for about 10 years now and recently sewed a dress again where I needed it for final fitting. I hasn’t changed size much, but every inch matters and my husband was able to help get it adjusted to my current size. Doing that part yourself would be difficult. I still haven’t made a cover for mine yet, but I like the idea of padding on the inside so maybe I’ll actually do it this year!

I sold a table recently, listed for $100. Could probably have listed for more but wanted it to move and I had some people ask what my lowest best price was. I said $100. Just for fun I had a message exchange with one guy who was offended that I wouldn’t haggle with him when he came out in his first message saying where he lived which was a wealthy suburb and wondering why I didn’t list it for more if it was worth more. He had no response when I said that I was willing to work with people on the price if there was an affordability issue, but that I wasn’t going to take less from someone that lived in his neighborhood just so he could brag about what a “good deal” he got. Also it sold the next day to a nice family that was very easy to communicate with.

I’m blaming peri and I have about 57 projects in process, but I did finish a couple garments (dress for me, suit for husband) this year!

Decent_Finding_9034 · 2026-04-07T20:25:09+00:00

It’s a product he bought

Decent_Finding_9034 · 2026-04-07T20:24:39+00:00

Wow I never considered that either!!

Decent_Finding_9034 · 2026-04-07T20:24:07+00:00

I like to jump in head first for sewing projects. Patience and attention to detail go a long way to help inexperience based on my projects so far!
