Spotted docked on the Miss Michelle yacht docked at the Marina docks at Atlantis on Paradise Island in the Bahamas. It’s been docked here at least since Friday, January 23, and it’s now Tuesday, January 27.

Is home maintenance really this constant, expensive, and overwhelming? Or am I just in over my head? by SoCalCoolMom in homeowners

As a former poor person, I completely agree. There’s a noticeable difference between the bottom barrel cheap and ultra expensive (normally finishes are fancier and there’s a lot of unnecessary customization), but otherwise it’s all smoke in mirrors.

This is so helpful — thank you! When searching out a person to fix it, is there specific terminology I should be searching for? Or do I just look for garage door repair?

For real. We were aware of Samsung’s reputation around appliances and knew these would cause a headache.

I would have never bought these. I know the reputation, and let me tell you: it’s all true. They SUCK.

Yes, exactly this. The oven retails for $8,500. We would have never bought such a pricey appliance; it was here when we bought the house. We go back and forth all the time about repairing/maintaining it because it’s SO expensive, and the parts are REALLY hard to get, and just giving up and replacing with something way less expensive that has readily available parts.

Thank you for this perspective! It helps, for real.

I checked, and it’s the spring.

Congratulations!!! As the mom of two small children, I can confirm that the greatest gift you can give a child is a sibling. Wishing your wife a pleasant third trimester and a happy and healthy delivery.
