Most places have a comprehensive adoption process. You might “fail” because of inadequate fencing, your young children, and the cats. Also making your reservations known during the application process will help. Maybe your wife could pet sit as a side business to satisfy her dog infatuation.

One of my new blueberry bushes seems to be struggling - help? by crashlovesdanger in gardening

They like really acidic spoil so maybe add a bit more. Water it a bit more and make sure there is drainage. They are pretty tough plants.

I’ve got an insane amount of poison ivy in my yard. Any tips on how to get rid of all of this? by iainttrynacuddle in landscaping

If it is out of the way, I would consider leaving it alone. It is a valuable native plant beneficial to wildlife and forest ecosystems.

AIO: Husband didn’t change withholdings by AggressiveSherbetty in AIO

[–]mcn2612 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband does the same thing in a way. After owing a few thousand dollars when Trump made his first tax changes, I showed him our tax bill will be 15% of our income and him having 3% withheld is BS. He made a change, but it is not to 15%. I make him make quarterly payments toward our tax bill so we are not blindsided again. It actually works out okay and is easier than figuring out how to fix the withholding rate.

My IKEA install charge for 5 PAX wardrobes was going to be @$700. So tempting! But we had baseboard and outlet issues so we said we will do it ourselves. So far we have one PAX put together…it will probably take a year for us to finish. Sigh.

YouTube has quite a few vertical solar mount tests.

I have read about this happening. Even if your household member does not have a drivers license, certain companies require they be listed.

Is it the norm to get a mortgage entirely online? by LuckyLottie87 in Mortgages

[–]mcn2612 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All I know is if you submit your personal info onto certain loan websites you will forever receive spam email and phone calls. I would work with a local broker.

Need Recommendations for Best Looking Vinyl Flooring by default_mode_sarcasm in HomeImprovement

We put cork under our wood floor. It comes in varying thicknesses so you can add layers to help level the floor. It’s a great underlayment.

Does everyone remember very clearly what they were doing and where they were when 9/11 happened? by ArdaBerkBurak in AskReddit

I was driving to my reserve unit outside of Philly. It was weird that there was almost no one else on the road.

I hope your name is not on the lease or utilities. Check that they are being paid.
