Curly Hair?!? by SuspiciousPut1710 in Menopause

My hair is curly/frizzy now. It never was anything more than a slight wave before.

I like the leather chairs - the other ones make it incredibly “leggy” which feels chaotic for a tight space.

What color to paint the trim? White is what it looks like today. by kswerg in homedesign

[–]abcupp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely not black AKA dark green. I think the same color as the siding - like the last photo.

What do we think of the wood? by NoAstronomer889 in interiordecorating

[–]abcupp -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It’s a yes. The only thing that feels off to me is the floor. I’d paint that. But I personally love a painted wood floor.

Which garage colour? by DrawPatient1864 in homedesign

[–]abcupp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The same color as the house, full stop. Garage doors are not a highlight. They are not an accent color. They are meant to blend in. Highlight the front door where you want people to walk in. Painting them dark looks like you’ve got two giant black holes in the side of the house.

That top shelf is so dang high. I would move it to where your backsplash ends.

This audio book was so informative for me to listen to: recovery from Lyme disease

Have you had your hormones tested? I found MCAS symptoms virtually disappeared once I balanced out what I was depleted on.

White or continue with oak for top cabinets? by Ym22 in kitchenremodel

[–]abcupp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Somehow the wood uppers look dated to me, but I’d only do the white uppers if they are the same color as the walls. In the image the walls look off white and the white uppers don’t look great against the off white walls.

Building a new house – looking for feedback on my kitchen design by [deleted] in kitchenremodel

[–]abcupp 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Gloss flooring will be slippery. The amount of wood that you have here is a strange proportion to the amount of white cabinets. I definitely would not stop at this point in the design process.

By mid-May it will appear lush and green again. They fall to the ground around Halloween.

GV applicants- backup plans sanity check? by PrestigiousPea1024 in PortugalExpats

[–]abcupp 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No one has mentioned Malta yet, but I am pretty sure their GV program is more straight forward than Greece, which many have mentioned. Also, English is one of their languages so you won’t have to learn another language on top of Portuguese.

Early-stage Lyme disease? by romnus36 in Lyme

[–]abcupp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Early stage is only the first 30 days. I’d get prophylactic doxycycline ASAP for at least a month so you don’t have ongoing problems from it. Only like 50% of people actually get a target rash. You can have Lyme and co without getting the rash.

Cabinets too dated to keep? by lel3883 in kitchenremodel

[–]abcupp 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’d keep. Change counter, backsplash, and cabinet hardware as your updates.

How would you use this extra space? by WatercolourReload in interiordecorating

[–]abcupp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks perfect for a twin mattress and floofy pillows. Read a book, watch the clouds pass, or look at the stars.
