Point me.'I'd like to have them...

And I'd be happy to do it too.



Scissors? Oh no! You need some thinning shears for the mats that aren't all the way to the skin. It doesn't "cut" the mat out, it loosens it and thins the mat so it will brush out. Don't buy the cheap ones at Petsmart. They stink. You take the thinning shears and clip a few times INTO the mat, not under it. Then brush it out. I have some good instructions written out on how to brush too. Dixie must have the really thick undercoat. I'll send you a link to a decent pair of thinners that aren't too pricey if you want.



A sink without a faucet.

 

[stretchpants]

Well there's the third thing...You are now safe...

To add to the joy of my winter season , for some reason every faucet in my house has decided to develop an irritating drip. I know the bathroom sink one needs some TLC (probably a new washer). But I'm bummed by the one in the shower and kitchen sink.

Quite possibly I'm overdue for installing a whole house water filter.

 

[stretchpants]

Do you want me to call him?

Bought all the parts facets inners for toilet. just haven't gotten around to installing them yet. As you all figured out by now my hubby's pretty useless.

 

[stretchpants]

I'm gutting the kitchen....I hate my cabinets.They are the industry standard when they build new houses...Sometime next year...I think.

I don't need, but would really like to have new countertops in the kitchen. We have white countertops. They are awful.

Point me.'I'd like to have them...

I'll send you a link when I'm back on my laptop.

 

[stretchpants]

I thought about a granite counter top but they are so hard to clean. Water beads up on them and it leaves a water trail when you wipe them...I know they are pretty and are what's "in" but I think I might stick with laminate...

Since I've gotten back into couponing it's really worth it. Since hubby is helping me this time I'm able to do it much more organized and doesn't take as long. We go to two or three stores to get the deals instead of just one.

I want a fake granite counter and vinyl tile floor.

 

[tlmoody27]

Sorry Tiff.... a pink axe just doesnt scare me. Now, if I were a snake on your kitchen floor, I would be terrified. But alas, I am not.

Hope Mr V's doc appt isnt for anything bad, FV.

[FlyingV]

Mr. V is going to live.

Granite is on it's way out Stretchy, and stainless appliances are starting to trend out too. People are sick of the high cost and maintenance. And that all new kitchens look alike these days. Laminate is coming back. I'm going for soapstone when we finally re-do our builders grade 1980 kitchen.

Menards = Home Depot, but lower prices and more stuff.

 

[FlyingV]

Tiff is still in charge, I am having a glorious Monday.

carry on.....

 

[tlmoody27]

SP ~ any of these will work fine for what you need. I know it seems like a lot of a pair of scissors/thinning shears but it's not. I have two pair and one cost me around $100.

Are you really having a glorious Monday or are you being sarcastic?

 

[tlmoody27]

We just got home from Yogli Mogli. I had a cup full of cake batter flavored frozen yogurt with pnut butter cups, choc chips, nuts, whipped cream, and oreo pieces on top. Fit in nicely with my diet. It was so worth it though.

 

[tlmoody27]

Hubby's out back putting together our new raised bed garden kit. Got it at Home Depot. He just couldn't wait. I think we need another one to go with it.

 

[tlmoody27]

And since I'm talking to myself I'm going to get off here for a bit and find something constructive to do.

 

[FlyingV]

Dripping with sarcasm over here.

Of course you need another one!

Today is laundry day.

 

[tlmoody27]

Today is laundry day.

I'm doing some of that too. Just cleaned bathrooms and vacuumed before we left. My chores are done for the day. Chili is in the crockpot so dinner is simple today too.

I need to go take some ebay clothes pics for my next round of stuff. I'll be back in a bit.

 

[Drottwiler]

Mondays my normal laundry day but since I have a VK day tomorrow I put it off.
