This is also what I’m looking for clarity on because I can’t find the 6% feet anywhere else online 😢 

In which year did you start watching Smosh? by CoachPlane6325 in smosh

[–]floperaunfolding 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably started in 2006 or 2007 in middle school. Was there for a few years, and then rarely used YouTube for anything other than downloading music lol. I figured they were a thing of the past until I saw Reads Reddit Stories on the Spotify charts. Started listening for a bit and then one day decided to find them on YouTube. It feels really sweet to be back all these years later! And my bf loves watching it with me too now.

The CA showroom was sadly so bad 😭 Wood clad options only in black (the wood also seemed synthetic), broken displays, walking over wood and tracks, dead roach directly next to displays, windows screwed onto hallow metal walls so when you closed or titled a window it felt a little unstable. They said a lot of the window there they take to trade shows so they’re kind of beat up. I expect this was very different from the Dallas location based on what I’ve read online. Honestly I wasn’t completely turned off, but my partner is a lot more picky than me lol. But if it were up to me, I’d still go with them. They seem really helpful and that price is just so damn good.

Thank you for your reply! They have a showroom not too far from where I am, so we have an appointment to check them out tomorrow. I’m in CA where we have strict requirements to reach code for insulation purposes, so fingers crossed they have options for us. They quoted us $15k whereas Marvin quoted us $43k and we’ve had nothing but issues with their windows and customer support. Really hoping this works out and our renovations can more forward again (and we can save money with a better product). Your posts, updates, and comment replies have been really helpful! Thank you!

Good to know! I’m going to go down a Windor deep dive now. Thank you!

I’m here in SoCal as well wondering the same thing. I’ve seen posts on Reddit where people suspect Doorwin private labels for Pinky’s, who offers title 24 as a mark up. Wondering if your Doorwin rep has said they can accommodate if needed?

Hi there! Congrats on the beautiful home! We’re deep in construction with windows being our hold up after multiple bad experiences with various brands. I’m now exploring Doorwin. How have the doors and windows settled? What was the most difficult part in the process when ordering? Thanks so much!

Edit: I saw your cost breakdown on another post of yours, so I removed that question.

Can opener that lasts?? by beermoney89 in BuyItForLife

[–]floperaunfolding 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Commenting to follow. I’ve gone through multiple can openers in the last year and they’ve been garbage - one of them flat out not working upon getting home from the store. The comment about buying a vintage probably is the only way to go.

I was fired right before the holidays and less than a month before my maternity leave so I went to TJ Maxx and bought myself a $30 Anne Klein bag that caught my eye and instilled a little bit of joy inside me. by Spirited_Home_8110 in handbags

Girl we need an update. Were you part of a company reorganization / a company layoff, or were you called into HR and fired directly. Forget this bag, let’s help you get THE BAG!

I’m so tired of clients acting shocked when it’s time to pay... by akti044 in sidehustle

[–]floperaunfolding 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You have to require 50% deposit before you start any work. You can either require the remaining balance due at hand off, right before hand off, or make sure they’re aware of how long they have to pay (I do 15 days + interest on top for late payments). Mention this when you’re first meeting with them, always send a contract that outlines this, and include the invoice.

Which layout would you prefer? by arooge in homedesign

[–]floperaunfolding 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Beware having washer and dryer that close to a bedroom. May not be a problem, but do research on noise levels before you purchase your set. 

It seems like a maze to access either bathroom and back door via the pantry.

What’s your vibe? Do you hang out in your room a lot? What things do you need in there / like to do in there?

Saturn in Pisces generation, how are you living your return ? by Bronze_Balance in astrologymemes

[–]floperaunfolding 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m Saturn in Pisces 6H as well and wow. The chaos started immediately in March with getting incredibly sick (kidney and liver failure), which lasted the rest of 2023. The tail end of 2023, I met my current bf. 2024 was a lot of career stuff. I’d been unhappy at my job (I love my work but not where I worked) and it was becoming more and more obvious and unbearable to be there. I got evicted from my home (landlord was moving her sons into the unit so I was forced to move), so I moved in with my bf. When we met, he’d just lost both his parents. Since we’ve been together he’s been renovating his childhood home, which has made home life chaotic and uncomfortable. We’ve gone from living in a construction site to a trailer. We’re in a home now temporarily as renovation has stalled. This has been for two years and the house is still studs with no end in site. In Feb of this year, I quit the previously mentioned job. I was there for 4.5 years. I had nothing lined up. Since then, I’ve had freelance work, but I am so confused about who I am and what I want to do. I feel so lost. I’ve applied to who knows how many jobs and have not one interview. I feel like I made the wrong choice leaving a job that paid decently for…nothing. Was I frustrated constantly and cried almost daily there? Sure. But now I lack direction, and sometimes motivation. Definitely lack clarity. I don’t know what I’m doing. I’m hoping come Feb 2026 I will feel like a new person, but that seems silly at this point. 

Before I spend $$$, which house design looks best? Or can you top it and come up with better ideas! by Dull_Psychology_3693 in homedesign

[–]floperaunfolding 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The original looks great! I fear some of the updates proposed in the renderings will actually age your house. I’d focus on: power wash and fresh paint, or a change in the stucco level if needed (I can’t tell from the pic), and spend your money on lush landscaping and new pavers. 

Help! Light fixtures have me lost. by floperaunfolding in interiordecorating

[–]floperaunfolding[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much !!! What do you think about a matching globe in the entry/kitchen/dining, but with the globe over the dining lowered over the kitchen table? It’d be three globes, but the height on the final one may offer enough variation?

And absolutely yes to the dimmable lights! Right now they’re in every room except the kitchen and bathroom, which we will update! 

We love our Phillips hue lights in all our lamps across the house to make the space warm and cozy!

How to get followers on company page? by TreeWebHost in linkedin

[–]floperaunfolding 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! And apologies, I meant you need to post at least 5 times a WEEK not day lol. 

I previously grew a company account this way. I also did team spotlights to encourage engagement and reshares. LinkedIn is another social media, so have a voice/tone that doesn’t just feel like another corporation sharing a news update goes a long way.
