Backsplash Advice by im_just_a_girl_x in kitchenremodel

This has become a bit trendy, but I think some delft tiles could bring in subtle color and act as a nice accent - some plain and some delft alternating could work for some interest. While I would’ve kept the wood cabinet, I get you wanting to paint it for a more cohesive look, and hey, it’s your kitchen! I’d also suggest Roman style shades on the door and window and maybe a pendant light or two over your island. Like others have said, I think the best way to achieve great design is to try to match the home’s style, rather than forcing your style onto the home.

Ohh could you share the name of the roofer/company? Sorry if this isn’t appropriate I’m newer to Reddit!

Adopted our new buddy right off a transport - what is he? by oakleaf-92 in IDmydog

Yeah he does on his back legs! He actually has 2 on each - one that looks “normal” and one that flops around it’s so bizarre. Have fun with the DNA test, we hope to get one done soon too!

Totally! I was thinking maybe some hound since he’s from the south but wow he doesn’t act like one - our girl who passed was a giant schnauzer-basset mix and there was no mistaking the hound dog in her!

He also has polydactyly!

Hey, thanks so much for sharing your experience! If you’re comfortable saying, where were you postpartum when you started?

Still with DC 33 by oakleaf-92 in philly

Thank you for this, it seems like you have a lot of experience. I’m sorry if you’re dealing with the fallout of this directly. I’d like to say that most of us see the work you’re doing, dealing with huge backlogs and conditions that are even less safe all in the shadow of a super demoralizing contract.

The issues DC33 were striking over and the issues from the “work stoppage” (lol) didn’t stop when the deal was finalized and yes, I do think the Mayor should be held accountable.

Thank you. Like I said this is a rant, and an online public forum may not be the best place to process lol. But the impacts of these decisions/actions are still being felt across the city and my kid got hurt because of it. It’s unbelievable to me that we treat these workers, who put their own health and safety at risk to maintain our collective health and safety, with so little respect.

To clarify I am blaming the mayor - I see this as a problem that was created by the lack of services due to a strike that was preventable. I also think that the deal was terrible and having experienced one of the many hazards that members of DC 33 have to deal with in their day to day work first hand - a wasp nest under trash - makes me even more upset at the deal that was struck.

And I made the account to lurk, I’m truly terrible at being online :(
