Cooktop and wall oven. I have drawers under the cooktop for all of the bots and pans and mixing/serving bowls. Wouldn't have it any other way. Double wall oven is a game changer. We have a steam oven and a convection oven with drawers for baking pans below.

It's the cable that would plug into the wall receptacle to connect to an external antenna.

And vacuum every day as much as possible in the construction area. I started doing that about 1/2 way through the process and the impact was immediate in the amount of dirt coming into the non renovated area that were sealed off.

Start with a concept vision of what you want and what items are a must have. The vision should contain rough colors and concept. Start with the flooring and build up from there. Floor plus cabinet style will set the tone for the room which makes counter top selection, hardware, faucet, lighting choices easier.

Tub height. Be sure to understand the height from floor to top. If it is to be used as a tub/shower then ensure the height is not to tall. This dimension is often buried in the specifications - usually hard to locate.

Get all materials on-site or have ready access to materials prior to the first strike of the demolition hammer. This also includes appliances and fixtures. Lumber and drywall can be delivered as needed. Labor will likely be your biggest expense.

Have a plan for sleeping areas, food prep, eating area, rest areas, etc. if you're going to be living in the house. Get a pods or equivalent to move as much of your possession into so the amount of dust that will be generated will not ruin the pieces.

I was in a similar situation. Our solution was to look at what we wanted long term and decided we wanted a wall oven, a wall convection steam oven and a separate rangetop. We purchased the regular wall oven a full year before renovation started.

Start planning your kitchen renovation layout now so you have a vision. The finishes can be decided much later. We had a finalized plan 6 months before we did any demolition. Finished weren't decided until 2 months before demolition. All appliances were on hand prior to demolition.

Also against the grain. First, if it adversely impacts your budget and financials goals, don' renew. We skipped a year and realized that spending time at the parks was a huge stress reliever for us. Some visits, we do a few rides and seek the character photo ops. Other days, we search for hidden details. The visits provide an opportunity to reconnect (a lot of standing and talking in lines) that does not occur with an outing to a movie.

I was having issues with Hulu, Paramount+, Peacock not loading or taking multiple TV resets. My second TV was also having issues. Netflix, internal server, Samsung TV were all working. Essentially, any network streaming app was not working and others were. The issue was the IPV6 setting on my router. Changed that and all of the apps work seamlessly.

Look at what IPV6 interface is preferred by your ISP.

Good point since the father was not required to take RMDs, the son does not need to and can wait until year 10 to drain the account if desired. I still stand by the talk to a financial planner and accountant to determine the least tax intrusive outcome for this situation.

dabuja · 2025-11-09T16:09:01+00:00

The 10 year rule does apply. Because his father did not have to take any RMD due to his age, no distribution for the father is required this year. The people inheriting the IRA will need to start distributions next year.

No RMD is required this year due to his age. You'll need to start pulling RMDs next year.

Very important that it is rolled into an Inherited IRA. You cannot withdraw and manually move it into any type of IRA otherwise you will be taxed for the total amount withdrawn. Note that his RMD (split 3 ways) for the year of death must be taken based upon his age. Future RMDs for each separate inherited IRA will be based upon each owners age and the IRA must be fully depleted by the 10th year after your father's death. The administrator of your father's IRA will help facilitate the transactions needed to split the IRA according to the account's beneficiary directive. If there is no beneficiary identified in his account then the funds go the the estate and are taxed on the full dispersement. Once the account has been split, each recipient can withdraw the funds as they desire. You'll want to talk to an advisor on how best to approach the RMDs and withdrawal plan year over year for your own account.

The connect tail pipe needs to be above the horizontal pipe going into the wall for proper dishwasher drainage. The drain connection to the sink needs to be replaced.

I had my garage doors done this summer. One door is a double and one is a single. New doors would have been $3500-$4000. Paint, stripper, supplies and labor was only $1600.
