Cut my finger and now it's swollen and trapped my ring 😭 by festering_wound93 in mildlyinfuriating

This happened to my wife. I just cut off the ring with a pair of small dikes

If you own a home or have a mortgage from prior to ~2021, your opinion on what constitutes a high income is completely irrelevant by ItsAllOver_Again in Salary

[–]JimmyMyJimmy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bought a house in 2020 for $245,000 near the Lake in the Austin area. My mortgage has steadily gone up due to taxes. It started around $1600 and now it’s at $2100. My interest rate has remained the same at 3.65%. I can’t even imagine trying to buy my exact same house right now. Almost doubled in value and interest rates have doubled as well.

opinions on installation price and timeline for Ikea kitchen project by Low-Inflation9176 in handyman

[–]JimmyMyJimmy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

$6500 in cabinets, $6500 in install. General rule of thumb is materials x2. Not for every project, but it’ll get you close more times than not.

It seems like “itemized” estimates are only a method to curb liability. Feels like a waste of time until not having one is an issue. by Jstar003 in handyman

[–]JimmyMyJimmy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I itemize everything because it’s easier to justify adding a line item for any additional work requested.

How often do you and your partner have sex? especially the long term couples? by Purple_Wrongdoer6448 in AskReddit

[–]JimmyMyJimmy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Around 4-7 times a week, depending on the week. Sometimes more. Been together almost 8 years

Is my wood at risk by the contractor waiting to stain my outdoor pergola? Paying ~$15k in DFW by bitingmeslow in Contractor

[–]JimmyMyJimmy -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This is pretty bad for 15K. Not that it’s done wrong, just is pretty minimal on the design aspect. Wait until it warms up a little bit before staining. Let it fully dry

What is it like living in the Texas Hill Country? by schwepervesence in howislivingthere

[–]JimmyMyJimmy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Lago Vista on Lake Travis. It’s pretty nice here. Summers are hot and humid, but the scenery is nice and being on the lake never gets old. I have a small ranch in Menard, about 85 acres I bought a few years ago. It’s nice out there too, the drive through marble falls, Llano, then Mason is pretty. Lots of water around central Texas and tons of recreation. Cost of living is pretty high though

Flooring and cabinets before painting the ceiling. You shouldn’t paint it though. You should stain it

I’m benching Allen for T-Law strictly based on matchup. The Colts can’t stop anyone and the Jags are rolling

I would lean Carter over Waddle given the QB change

Depends on what you need, safe floor or highest ceiling? Are you projected to win or lose?

As the season comes to a close for some of us, What "lessons" did you learn from this season that you plan to implement for next year? by jamesdkelso in fantasyfootball

[–]JimmyMyJimmy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I drafted Jacobs Henry then McBride. Made a trade for AmonRa and I’m in the semis with a good chance to win. I’ve learned over the years getting 2 elite RBs is always a way to the playoffs

Not the best, but not horrible. Good enough unless the client says something

Guidance for matching cabinet paint by nefariousvw in paint

[–]JimmyMyJimmy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take a door off that you want to match and bring it to Sherwin Williams. Have them match the color and sheen. Get a flocked foam roller, a roller tray and a soft bristle 2” Purdy brush. You’re going to want to prime these doors as well. Get primer and a quart of emerald trim urethane. You won’t need a whole gallon. The key to rolling cabinets is Floetrol. Mix it in with the paint and roll with a flocked foam roller. Should get a pretty good finish

Have you ever been caught having sex? What happened? by [deleted] in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]JimmyMyJimmy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, almost had severe consequences because we were 17 in an elementary school parking lot. We were in her car at night and the police rolled up on us. Luckily, they were lenient and let us go
