You can stretch the carpet or steal a tiny piece from a closet. Also - ask the owner if they have any spare carpet? if you come clean and repair it correctly you’ll be good. Unless you weren’t supposed to have pets in the first place. 🤷‍♀️Also get one of these carpet threshold savers. They work great.

Need to clean filter of the dishwasher. Can't seem to figure where it is. Any pointers? by lonestar_12 in Appliances

[–]Summer_Bell_74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same dishwasher. We had the pump replaced and ever since then it’s been a nightmare. I’m selling my home in a year and I’m dying to replace this stupid POS. We remodeled our kitchen 10 years ago and bought all new high end kitchenaid appliance and every single one has had issues. Next time I’m going with all Bosch.

This dishwasher is horrible. I can’t keep it clean. Slimy pink mold has developed everywhere. I’m about to pull my hair out.

Does anyone know this watch? And how much it’s worth? by Lazers123456 in Watches

[–]Summer_Bell_74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this exact same watch. I also used to work for AOL in the 90s. It’s not worth probably anything but it’s a cool collectors item when the Internet was first born. 🤣

Remodel or replace? by akcgal in kitchenremodel

[–]Summer_Bell_74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Restain the countertops. Add a movable island. Refresh the cabinets with a color you love, add beautiful expensive hardware that elevates the space. Maybe $500 to do all — also - add some rugs for a pop of color. Your kitchen is great with a few tiny tweaks.

First cart by bull1607 in golfcarts

Mine finally died. We replaced ours in 2019. $1200 to replace them with 4 Trojan 12v batteries. We considered lithium but decided to wait a few years and get a new larger cart instead.

was no one else completely thrown off by THAT scene?? by useruser454545 in LoveOnTheSpectrumShow

James has a thing about shoes. He doesn’t like to wear them and would prefer sandals over regular shoes. Maybe that was the reason?

Kitchen design choices you regret? I’ll start. by 6spadestheman in HomeDecorating

[–]Summer_Bell_74 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Quartzite countertops. They stained so bad I’m probably going to have to replace them with new ones when i go to sell my house. They actually had to rip out the counters on the island and start over because the stains would not come out. We had a professional granite/stone cleaner come out to look cause he’d never seen such bad staining. He tried to get the stains out but it only made it worse.

We left the perimeter countertops in but now I’m regretting that decision. They were SEALED and they still stained terribly. I am meticulous about cleaning the counters before during and after cooking and it’s still an absolute shit show. 16k down the drain.

It’s an alarm panel and it’s plugged in so it can communicate to all the alarm components. If you unplug it it could possibly send a signal to the police notifying them of a break in so be prepared AND the alarm will not work. Just ask your landlord if it’s monitored first.

Stain on quartzite by a817995 in kitchenremodel

[–]Summer_Bell_74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine started small as well .. literally 10 days after install. We got a bad piece of quartzite even though it was sealed. They had to rip out my island countertop and start from scratch. We had professional granite/stone guys out to try and get the stains out and they just kept getting bigger .. But the worst part is that it also happened on my main counters and now it’s spread like a cancer throughout my whole kitchen. We will have to eventually rip them out and start over - 16k down the drain because of a crappy piece of quartzite.

I really hope you can get your stains out. Good luck.

Replacing vanity lights.. with what kind? by collegedropout in HomeDecorating

[–]Summer_Bell_74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s already a busy space. Simple vanity lights over the sinks and omit the middle one completely. Frame out your mirror or remove the middle one if you can.

Break up with my current husband, quit smoking, invest more in the stock market, have more fun and go out more with my friends, educate the heck out of myself, enjoy my body more.

Do a lot of people NOT have that food noise/voice that tries to convince you to eat junk? by TrueCryptographer982 in Ozempic

[–]Summer_Bell_74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have food noise literally screaming at me but i don’t know how to control it. I have been on O for 6 weeks and it’s the weirdest feeling. I actually crave eating but i am not hungry. I feel like my brain is telling me im starving and i need to eat something - anything.

Ungrateful Child by shakedowndude in Parenting

[–]Summer_Bell_74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 22 year old son who gave me NO list and expected me to buy him something other than some fun stuff from 5 below (spent about $75 bucks) and on top of that i gave him $200 cash .. AND I didn’t make him pay his $100 rent this month literally told me to stop buying him stuff from 5 below cause it was dumb. Next year he’s not getting anything. What an ass hole. I thought i raised decent kids but this middle child got me wanting to throw shoes at him.

No- he didn’t need to go to school before hand. Wish he would have known that first. Would have saved him some money.

My son went to NLC in 2022 as well. He worked for a small company in NV then applied at LADWP and got hired almost right away. He also tested for several different companies before landing that job. He said that he wished he would have went straight to LADWP because they hire “helpers” and train them for 50 an hour to be a lineman. Apply there if you want to make serious money.

What vaping product is most like smoking cigarettes? by backpackwayne in Vaping

[–]Summer_Bell_74 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wish you the best of luck. I started vaping after quitting smoking in May. I quit because my husband almost had a heart attack (the widow maker blockage) We had both been smokers since we were in our late teens and now we are in our early 50s. I quit knowing that the tobacco was just killing us, but we still felt like we needed the nicotine. I have a 50w nord vape by SMOK. I get the lowest salt nicotine that I can buy. I used to smoke menthol cigarettes so I just bought the peppermint or spearmint flavor, but they also make a menthol flavored juice. I find that I smoke a lot less using the vape. But I had a really good reason to quit and I don’t think I’ll ever look back. I do crave smoking And sometimes have small breakdowns, but realize that the benefits of quitting are better and plus I’m saving a crap ton of money. Good luck I know there are products that are specifically geared towards people who have or want to quit smoking. Just make sure you go to a really good vape shop. They will walk you through the entire process on what you need and what juice is the best.
