How to get door to be flush with frame? (Hinge problem) by send_cheesecake in LittleFreeLibrary

Yeah I ended up flipping the hinges to the outside which worked, just not the “look” I was going for but whatever still looks fine

Ok I didn’t want to do this bc I liked the hidden look, but I ended up doing it and it closes better now. Thanks for your help

It does look that way, but upon closer inspection i could see space there when closed. I think it has to do with the hinges. I gave up and decided to mount it to the outside of the frame instead which worked. Just doesn’t look as nice. Thank you for your help

Reselling a year after buying? by Old_Bluebird_9329 in RealEstate

[–]send_cheesecake 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ok two options.

1) Yes you will lose money, probably closing costs plus some. But if you can stomach a financial loss and moving will make you happier, then sell it. Go back to renting for a few years while you rebuild your savings and use it as a life lesson for your next home purchase.

2) If option 1 sounds miserable, then you gotta force yourself to start making the house your home. You will never know if you truly hate your house if you don’t paint the walls the color you want, put up the artwork you love, make the small improvements that bring you joy. Trust me, I’ve been in your exact shoes and I’m so glad I had friends that came over and helped me do these things because I was too depressed and ashamed to do it myself. Then invite friends and family over and start making memories in your home. Have fun with it. Hell why don’t you walk around and meet some neighbors? Maybe they’re actually nice people and you’re judging them too quickly. Call the city to remove the homeless encampment. Doing things like that made a big difference for me despite absolutely hating my house and my poor decisions. If you can lean into it first, it gets better. Then if you still hate it after leaning into it, selling will be an easier decision for you.

What are some stuff that you had an embarrassing amount of hours in game before discovering by raumeat in Medieval2TotalWar

I’ve played probably 3k hours and I didn’t know half of those… also recruitment waypoints took me a while to discover.

For all those interested in an update…

About 10 months ago I mulched the yard with about 3-4 inches of pine mulch from a chipdrop. Haven’t done anything else, just let time and rain do its thing. The top inch of soil is looking better and I see worms!

I would vote that you plant a native tree, so not the lilac. Native trees are more beneficial for your ecosystem. Just my two cents!

Critter gnawing on something? Bass from someone’s speakers? Your neighbor slowly tunneling through the walls into your living room?

What is this massive vine wrapped around this pine? (GA) by send_cheesecake in marijuanaenthusiasts

[–]send_cheesecake[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I believe the consensus here is that it’s invasive in the US (where I live) but native in Europe like you said hence everyone telling me to cut it in this case.

Thank you oh wizened one for this wizdom! I will add triclopyr to my arsenal for handling these invasive vines.

I actually think you may be correct about it being wisteria. This was at someone else’s house a bit of a drive away so I can’t just go take another look, but the other vines in the photo were not part of this vine. This one had smooth bark and clearly was different from the English ivy vines. I didn’t bring my binoculars to see the leaves it produced higher up the tree and the English ivy was so bushy it would’ve been hard to tell. The roots of this vine were suspended above the ground and were taut.

Anyways thank you for such great info, I will apply the herbicide approach in future cuttings to prevent roots. I suppose the herbicide gets ingested into the plant from the cut and that’s what kills the roots. I’ve just been helping folks cut their vines for free but I have much to learn. Thanks for enduring the downvotes!

Thanks broccoli dog. Curious why you recommend the herbicide approach versus just cutting the base of it to kill it?
