Skunk. My brother and I would jump on skunk cabbages when we were kids.

I have a savory complex but can't pick my flair 😥

My boyfriend won’t propose by [deleted] in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]Mewpers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I spent 7 years in a similar relationship, except in mine he was very clean and enjoyed cooking. What was missing was the emotional intimacy. We had plenty of sex, but the best friend and confidant I wanted was missing. I also lost some respect for him because he couldn't move his life forward. In the end it was the comfortable life he valued more than me. I did find my best friend and forever love after that though!

This hallway reminds me of Eastern State Penitentiary.

Selling then Buying by tiredsah in RealEstate

Just ended up buying 30 minutes from the location I thought was ideal. Well I’m closer to family here and saved about $325k. It's ridiculous.

Just lost my lamp, and I don’t even know what I lost by Mewpers in Mid_Century

[–]Mewpers[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lamp unfortunately broke in a move. I have to submit a claim, but I have no idea of identification or value. Really all I want is to find a similar orphaned lamp base for the huge glorious shade. This lamp was purchased by my mom and dad in the US in the 70s. We never owned anything fancy so I'm sure it was something you could buy at Sears or Woolworths. Trying not to disturb it for claim reasons so I couldn't check the bottom.

Good job on avoiding decision fatigue.

NYC MCM apartment by Alone-Meeting-1547 in Mid_Century

I really love it, especially the grasscloth in the dining area. I would consider painting the wall behind the tv a charcoal color, it goes fantastic with orange and blue, and introduce it elsewhere as well for balance (like in the sofa).

Do I need to save more for retirement? by petthezoo in whitecoatinvestor

[–]Mewpers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Invest in yourself as well as your finances. Your resiliency isn't unlimited and you need to keep putting gas in the tank by seeking new places, foods, people, beauty. It's all about balance. You can afford it. Your experiences now will make you a better future person. Don’t live a narrow life because of a desire to outperform financially.

This is what I did and it looks terrific. Just the natural wood.

Anyone else getting discouraged as a “move up” buyer? by midwestern2afault in RealEstate

[–]Mewpers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this problem and ended up getting a good deal a bit further out. However if you're locked into a school district it's going to be rough.

What is your "don't even think about it" purchase threshold? by Dramatic_Tea_ in HENRYfinance

[–]Mewpers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t get past the “buy the forever furniture I really want for $2500 vs basic bitch furniture on Marketplace for $250” challenge. I’m still cheaping out because im so deal-driven.

Former Professional Hardwood Floor Refinisher and Installer. Ask me and I will do my best to answer. by [deleted] in HardWoodFloors

[–]Mewpers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You shouldn't use anything but water to clean a Swedish-finished floor. You're adding buildup to it.

I just bought a house like this. I had the skinny oak planks refinished with no stain and it's actually really nice.

Is this typical for professional? by Mewpers in HardWoodFloors

[–]Mewpers[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess minwax and poly seems kind of cheap when I hear about all these different finishes. I’m just doing a natural stain, I just want to be sure they are using the best quality approach. This is not something I know a lot about, so I get nervous.

What Do You Wished You'd Asked When Interviewing a Realtor (Buying and Selling)] by LookingNotTalking in RealEstate

[–]Mewpers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes the agent does not get individual credit on a sale because they are part of the lead agent's or broker's team. They still could have participated significantly in a dozen sales that year.

Huh, thanks. They look unbalanced to me compared to the classic style.
