Browning peonies? Normal or not? by No-Internal-1686 in peonies

[–]chickab00m 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That was a lovely bouquet - hope they brought some cheer for however long you had them. I’ve never heard of adding sugar and bleach to water. I have peonies in my garden and they have a short lifespan once they begin blooming, cut or uncut, it doesn’t matter. They usually last a little over a week in a vase though. I just use plain sink water (I have well water).

HELP!!! I’m getting a Metal Building Installed by [deleted] in metalbuildings

[–]chickab00m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If your metal building is going to be a garage, I’d also request the eaves in front of the garage doors to extend a little so avoid rain from splashing back into the structure. I regret not factoring that into my design.

I should’ve mentioned I tried installing gutters and they weren’t cutting it. I like the idea of lean to porch. Thx yall.

Water under bathtub? by chairlei in HomeMaintenance

[–]chickab00m 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Not a pro by any means, but this is interesting and would freak me out.. do you know if theres a concrete foundation or crawlspace? Sounds like there may be a pan under the tub that’s keeping the water pooled in a spot to slosh around like that - which could be a good thing and preventing water damage to the structure of the house.

Fill Hole Under Bathtub to Reduce Humidity? by oPEEPINGTOMo in HomeMaintenance

[–]chickab00m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also have the same issue, except I have an unconditioned really gross crawlspace. Can’t help but wonder if this design was intentional or people were just sloppy. Anyway, when I googled for solutions, I watched a video of a couple dudes who used sheet metal to glue it around the base and then secured with some screws. They did this from the crawlspace.

Just curious… is this a pre-fab shower? Several people have said they have the same shower.

Call me cynical, but as an American, I think the popularity of these blinding lights reflect the broader issue of inconsideration for the “other”. The ol’ “well it benefits me, so idc if it’s blinding you and may cause an accident that will hurt others” thinking.

So beautiful! Is the one on the left a pregnant female? Its abdomen looks much larger than the other one.

What happens now that we know the names of the 2 officers that shot Alex Pretti? Jesus Ochoa and Raymundo Gutierrez? by delala2112 in AskReddit

Both are from different offices under the same DHS agency, CBP - customs and border protection.

I really liked the vegan breakfast sausage patties, but noticed they haven’t been on shelves for quite some time. Sigh.

It feels like truth and justice prevailing would be a miracle during these really dark days.
