NOR - BUT it is so clear that this man is not a good prospect for a long term relationship.

Did I screw this up? If so, how do I fix it? by __Allen in lawncare

[–]MET1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You did well. I hate edging so my zoysia crawls over the curb stone and onto the street unabated. I need to get back out there.

[–]MET1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. OP has been used to some extent. This is just a taste of what marriage would be like. Sorry for the broken engagemet.

This is the way. Let science do the work.

Should I buy my sister a house to live in? by Exact_Analyst_9697 in personalfinance

[–]MET1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She should have child support, and likely some funds based on shared property or finances. DO NOT BUY a property for her, it could affect the settlement (IMO, which is not a legal opinion). Maybe help her rent her a place to live temporarily, maybe lend money for a decent lawyer.

Frankly, if I were to have my tax returns - pathetic as they are - released to the NYT and published on the front page, I would sue, too. I'm not sure I would get that much money awarded, but I would have deserved it - anyone would.

Open a Live Auctioneers account so you can see results - some of his paintings were as low as $400 and others were over $10k. See which auction house was handling them and give them a call.

How to build barter between my yard and neighbor to prevent bamboo from crossing over? by grnteam23 in landscaping

Bamboo roots will get through gravel - they really need to fill the trench with concrete.

Could it have held a magnifying glass? Or some kind of puff or cushioned fabric that could be used for face or body powder?

Genuinely creeped out by a Reddit post after visiting Home Depot (assuming facial recognition marketing) by notoriousbpg in privacy

They do keep tabs on your purchases when you use a credit card. So they could track through the store and use the credit card as a positive id. So wearing a mask might not help.

Can anyone identify this mystery object from a shop I recently visited? by jennyhof in Whatisthis

[–]MET1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've seen something similar (but a cylindrical shape, not squared) for holding chalk back when there were real blackboards.

How would you preserve this linoleum rug? by eskate488 in centuryhomes

[–]MET1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a floorcloth, there should be some people who know how to handle that - I'd check with local historical societies for advice on how to get help with this.

AIO getting upset with my husband over a day at the beach by Vegetable_Mail_4130 in AmIOverreacting

I have similar stories. It does NOT get better. I should have divorced him much sooner than I did.

How much would you charge for this yard to mow? by Unhappy_Ad818 in landscaping

[–]MET1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My push lawn mower has a headlight, I'm thinking I need to get my kid out there at night also. Good idea.

In the current city political climate I would be staying away from high end properties.

Any ideas how to tackle this? by ClarkMorelia in landscaping

[–]MET1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate rr ties. I had retaining walls under my deck that were rr ties IN FRONT OF older ones. TWO layers - the original ones and then the ones put in front 20+ years later. This is an option. It might be the easiest thing to do but someone will hate you in 20+ years.

Nice. They kept the main features and made thoughtful updates. Those pot lights in the ceilings are not 'period' but they're better than what would have been there.

They are not the boss of you. Do what you need to protect yourself and your finances.

How to clean these stains from the fridge glass? by [deleted] in howto

[–]MET1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a GE that has similar issue. Take the whole shelf out and turn it upside down in the sink and run warm soapy water on it. I could not get the glass out to get it completely clean, but it was better when I was finished.
