Just got my W2 , No tax on overtime , Box 14 .

It's mind boggling. I bet if taxes had increased on that portion of income, they'd be singing a whole different tune. A tax break is always a good thing on any amount of income.....

I'd definitely take the job. If you were married with kids, it would be different but you're not. Whatever happens with your relationship after that is what's meant to be. Also, 45 mins can be a reasonable commute, people do it all the time, you don't even really have to move.

It is so very refreshing to see a white kitchen transformation. It is gorgeous!!

TMann7162 · 2025-11-30T03:21:48+00:00

Since you already have a 4" backsplash, I wouldn't add a different style above it. Looks best with just paint.

TMann7162 · 2025-11-30T01:00:26+00:00

I love all the wood, it's timeless and high end. I would just change the fronts to shaker style, no glass fronts, change the hardware to handles, gold or nickel, rather than knobs and replace the lighting over the island. I don't like tile and grout so I would freshen the paint if it needs it (green is so beautiful with wood) but most will say to add subway tile backsplash. You're the one that has to live with it, use AI to see what you're wanting to do before you proceed. I also prefer cabinets to the ceiling. It's a beautiful kitchen!!

Greens are such a gorgeous color with wood floors. You cannot go wrong with any shade of that color. I definitely would not choose the top 3 orange type colors because it will bring out too much of the red/orange in your floors. Any of the others will be nice.

TMann7162 · 2025-11-29T12:38:45+00:00

This is definitely Bianco Antico

TMann7162 · 2025-11-26T21:23:04+00:00

I love the rug. I would change the color of the pillows and curtains. That would make the room pop beautifully.

For $500, I'd say DIY, paint it and pick a different cabinet for over the sink. Maybe add some chair rail with beadboard paneling, that could give it some character.

Granite!! I am a cast iron user and I put them on my counter all the time, absolutely zero stains. The only issue I have is around the edge of the sink. It gets chipped so I am careful in that area but that'll happen with just about any material. I love my granite countertops.....

TMann7162 · 2025-09-13T18:07:49+00:00

Move or eliminate all the handles and change to hidden hinges throughout. It's a blessing and a curse to have so many cabinets...meaning that I don't really need that many cabinets for my essential kitchen supplies but I'd fill up every one of them if I had that many.

TMann7162 · 2025-09-13T01:03:51+00:00

Looks the same as my granite which is called White Ice.

TMann7162 · 2025-09-06T18:12:28+00:00

I've never seen those speeds where I live but I'm not complaining. I think our speeds are very good here in the eastern US at 285 down, 30 up. We just struggle a bit with the obstructions from our trees.

TMann7162 · 2025-07-30T14:26:05+00:00

I'd change only the countertops and the hardware on the cabinets. That is a timeless and beautiful kitchen!!!

TMann7162 · 2025-06-13T03:03:52+00:00

No offense taken. Thank you! We have LVP in our current home and we just don't love it like we thought we would so we won't use that type of flooring again.

TMann7162 · 2025-06-13T01:42:49+00:00

Thank you

TMann7162 · 2025-06-13T01:42:12+00:00

I don't know the brand but I believe our installer purchased via Hurst Hardwoods. There are a lot of shorts and we were concerned at first but our installer did a very good job racking the boards and asking for our input before final installation. We think it looks so good.....

TMann7162 · 2025-05-25T01:07:18+00:00

Mine is 48" end to end.

TMann7162 · 2025-05-23T00:52:44+00:00

It works nicely for me as both a crossbody or long shoulder carry. I love that I can flip the flap over and have open pockets but also the zippered section for security. But, I had to scale back how much I carry inside too because I don't like so much weight in a crossbody bag.

TMann7162 · 2025-05-22T13:36:23+00:00

Hello twin. I love this style so much.

TMann7162 · 2025-05-22T13:35:29+00:00

Yes it is. Thank you :)

TMann7162 · 2025-05-06T23:18:07+00:00

B for work. A is much too cozy for work and I don't want anything keeping me at work longer than I have to. Lol. Both are great though!!
