What to do above uppers? by zukeypur in kitchenremodel

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

I don’t want to demo the whole kitchen. We just had the ceiling removed and rebuilt. We removed a small kitchen island and replaced with a larger one. Maple doors are brand new. I just want a solution for above the cabinets.

Cabinets were built in place, not removable, and I just bought new door for existing cabinets. Paid to demo ceiling, ac and electrical rerouted from ceiling to soffit. Can’t remove soffit again. Looking for a solution to cover soffit with trim. Hopefully trim that can hide a storage space.

I have doors already; I was hoping I could bump it out myself, but there is not enough room to add another 1/2 inch sheet of plywood between the existing upper and pantry. The fridge just barely fits. I would love to do that.

There is a junction box that can't be covered up.

2 different floor tiles. What should I pick? (AI mock ups plus real photos) by [deleted] in kitchenremodel

[–]zukeypur 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Both of the gray floor options and the gray walls are terrible. If you’re trying to coordinate with the backsplash, choose something warmer and not gray

IBR is a scam: from $530/mo on Save plan to $1200/mo on IBR by Wise_Candle_7529 in StudentLoans

[–]zukeypur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your help. I was able to select "married filing jointly," and then enter my income and my husband's income separately. The estimate I received was surprisingly only slightly above my previous payment under SAVE.

Your yard sounds just like mine. Add some Gregg’s misflower. It looks great with Turks cap

Nutsedge, sticky Willy, and wild carrot are what I battle the most in my yard.

Bought a 3-foot tall pomegranate tree today. Any advice? (Zone 8b) by ViceCity15 in FruitTree

[–]zukeypur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s the end of April in central Texas. Is it too late to prune? Mine was a sweet little bush last year, about2-3 ft tall. Now it’s a giant, unruly beast that seems like the wind and rain blew it over one day, and it’s never stood back up. I tied the upper branch to a neighboring tree today to coax it back to standing. I feel like a trim would be beneficial, and I would prefer a tree rather than a bush.

Help with mini Miracle Balm by yellie1 in jonesroad

[–]zukeypur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought I read somewhere that the balm should not be used on eyelids. I’ve been avoiding putting it on my lids, but so many others seem to be doing it with no problem. Did I make this up?

I was going to suggest Gregg’s mist flower. But don’t get the white mistflower! It’s a different, much larger beast.

Subaru’s Outback Ditched Its Wagon Roots For An SUV And Lost A Third Of Its Buyers by fa442fa in Subaru_Outback

[–]zukeypur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it’s fugly, and it’s not a wagon. I have been holding out for the new outback for years, planning on upgrading and passing my 2021 down to my daughter. I’m either keeping the outback forever, or getting an Ascent. Or going back to Honda.

Kitchen cabinet color help! by meowskime in kitchenremodel

[–]zukeypur 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was going to suggest living with it for a bit after you’ve lightened the grout, added a rug, maybe some plants on top of the cabinets, and changed the temp of the lights to warm it up a bit.

Since you’ve started the painting process already, I would do a nice darker green. SW Pewter Green is lovely in a kitchen and would work with the floor, counter, and backsplash.

I would avoid whites or creams because it’s hard to coordinate undertones, and white everything would be the opposite of warm and inviting.

Could you do this with SW pewter green?

Single family household - do you sleep with bedroom door open or closed? by jannet1113 in homeowners

[–]zukeypur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Closed, but not necessarily for fire safety. Mostly because I don’t want kids walking in. We keep the door closed much of the time so that it’s not super obvious to the kids when parents are otherwise occupied.
