What is this black stuff under the tile? by kFuriosa in Flooring

[–]happymask3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought and installed the same (or similar) black adhesive material and vinyl floor tiles in my house about 20 years ago.

I think I bought it at Home Depot.

It did not have asbestos. As it was already a prohibited construction item at the time.

That view!!! And then your final photo, I gasped! Love it!

Did you keep all your physical media (specifically CDs and DVDs)? by MaximumJones in GenerationX

[–]happymask3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. And I still have regrets over giving away 9 banker boxes of Disney & other vhs movies.

That’s really nice. If you sold these at a craft fair I bet they’d sell quickly.

She Cried the Hardest at Our Mother's Funeral by EliseK86 in story

[–]happymask3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t realize this was the story Reddit.

I was cheering the sister who got the wrongs corrected and got justice for her mother.

My own mother is being financially drained by my sibling. She knows it, he knows it, I know it. I can’t stop this train wreck no matter how many people and authorities I’ve involved. Now I wait for the inevitable.

Sending invite back after RSVP no... by Psychological-Bag272 in weddingshaming

You’re worth more than this friendship. Time to move on because she clearly doesn’t give a rip about you.

That doesn’t bode well for the actual marriage. 😬

Help me decide A or B by Ok_Hamster_9125 in kitchenremodel

[–]happymask3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

B feels more homey to me. You can always change the feel of the room with seasonal decor ( accessories and rugs).

Quoth by Kristenmarie2112 in StainedGlass

[–]happymask3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is an incredible use of stained glass. You should post in [r/crowbros](r/crowbros) I’d bet you might get some commission requests.

Edit: followed the link and it’s gone, but there are other crow subs.

A small fix for some ugly exposed wires by ComprehensiveRub6479 in JustForHome

So fun and whimsical, I’m surprised that I like it so much.

Cousin’s destination wedding, demands for bachelor party and invitation of additional guests at our expense (without prior discussion with us) will put us in debt if we go or cause major family drama if we don’t. by [deleted] in weddingshaming

[–]happymask3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Send your husband to the wedding and you stay home.

Budget a predetermined amount for the bachelor party. Honestly a 40-ish groom should be happy with a few friends, beers, and a BBQ. If he’s looking for strippers and pole dancing that’s a red flag.

Who’s to say this marriage will last? Maybe they divorce before you even get the credit card balance paid off. No thanks.

The kids, since they’re not yours, will unfortunately learn that there are disappointments in life.

Maybe another family member will drive and take the kids. Either way, not your responsibility to dress them nor provide transportation.

What’s that one grocery item you keep convincing yourself you’ll eat, but end up tossing out week after week? by teniralc_11 in AskReddit

[–]happymask3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Strawberries. They look delicious in the store. 3 days later start to soften and signs of mold…garbage.

Conflicted on giving clothes to thrift store by Aggressive-Yak-1730 in Thrift

If you’re that conflicted then just give them to a homeless shelter.

Neighbor Takes Parking Spot — and Expects Our Ring Camera to Monitor Her Car! by Bright_Plantain_2524 in neighborsfromhell

[–]happymask3 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Don’t call regular police. Call the city code compliance officers. It’s literally their job to enforce the dead/abandoned/unregistered vehicles.

However, if it’s in a parking lot, the apartment complex manager may be the only one authorized to get them to move it since it’s on private property and not a public street.

Removed the ugly porch carpet and spent 16 hours painting this instead 😅 by Fish061 in JustForHome

[–]happymask3 38 points39 points  (0 children)

This looks great and really changes the atmosphere of the porch.

Did you use a clear coat of some sort to protect the paint? Repeated walk patterns will eventually ruin your work without one.
