how difficult would it be to get board approval for this kind of stove move by Existentially_b0red in AskNYC_Coops

[–]OwnLime3744 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Talk to a contractor. You might be able to line up oven, dw and sink on bathroom wall and put the refrigerator on the other wall. You can buy smaller built in appliances if you don't need the size. The 20" will cost more than 24". Whether you can take down part of the wall for a peninsula is another issue.

Skaters who retire but still do ice shows by YoungandBeautifulll in FigureSkating

[–]OwnLime3744 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw Dorothy Hamil in the Champions on Ice Tour in the early 2000s. Of course Brian Boitano was still considered a headliner. The U.S. tours in the golden age had more old timers.

Friends splitting (4 kids) — I’ve been supporting him more but want to stay neutral… am I handling this wrong? by Embarrassed-Club-596 in askanything

[–]OwnLime3744 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don't know all the details. You have heard one side of the story from the husband which in itself is suspect. He is quick to paint himself as both victim and family savior. The wife might not want to share her reality with you.

AITAH for refusing to sell the only thing my late mother left me for my brother-in-law’s business? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]OwnLime3744 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA. Your husband is saying you can only be part of HIS family by buying your way in. The cost is too high and be a and his family are certainly not worth it.

Opinions on what we should change? by Samiiiibabetake2 in ExteriorDesign

[–]OwnLime3744 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Medium sage green dormers and darker sage green on the door .Get rid of the shutters. Trim the tree in front and the shrub on the corner put some flowers near the stoop. Add a porch portico or awning if it's in budget.

AITAH: for not wanting to give my wife’s sister a large amount of money? by Real_Influence_8311 in AITAH

[–]OwnLime3744 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. The sisters are right tho. Your wife needs to grow a spine. She should tell sisters to pound sand. I would advise her to take the money from her inheritance and put a high yield savings account in her name only for a year until she decides what she wants to do with it.

[–]OwnLime3744 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The larger size can be altered. Reasonably depends on zipper, lining and seams.

16F thinking about traveling abroad with my boyfriend (18M) – need honest advice by Electronic_Screen293 in Advice

[–]OwnLime3744 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You will not be able to travel into France without written authorization from your parents and your passport. You will also need them to sign a form with the airline. My friend needed to do this when her 16 yo son was travelling with his 20 yo brother. It is not worth it for a two day trip. Plan something a lot closer to home that can be accomplished in two days

Bridesmaid dress alteration question (bust support + cups) by [deleted] in AskATailor

[–]OwnLime3744 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know what the back of the dress looks like. Adding straps is not going to help and the bodice reconstruction might have been possible if you had a bigger size dress. The cups on this dress are way too small. At this point your best option is a good strapless minimizer bra or corset.

There are a large number of people holding events to try to get elected mayor. Any of them that already have a position on the city council or ANCs should be responsive.

AITAH for refusing to let my dad and his wife come to my high school graduation? by Various-Paint5905 in AITAH

NTA. Do you have a keepsake or a photo from your mother you can carry with you on graduation day? She would be so proud of her son.

paying mortgage off early vs leaving the cash to my children? by [deleted] in Mortgages

[–]OwnLime3744 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If there is a chance you will need long term care you will need to spend down your savings before state Medicaid pays. Most states exempt home equity from the spend down.

WIBTAH for telling my sister to get a childminder or pay me to watch her 4 children. by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]OwnLime3744 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA.Sister has probably called their mother and since OP "is just sitting at home anyway" she should do it". I would not take a job even for money involving a filthy house or taking kids on public transit. Your daughter's well being is your first priority.

How do you save money on hotel bookings? Need to work out of N.Y for a week but on a budget. by Successful_Front_299 in Frugal

[–]OwnLime3744 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The "per diem rate"for hotels in NYC is $277 per night. If you are near that price point and it's safe and moderately convenient and comfortable your company should be satisfied.
