We were tired of wet carpet and didn't want the threat of any moisture getting under any kind of floor in the basement (even though we mitigated the water problem, you never know), so we had our concrete floor stained. It's beautiful and will never harbor moisture. Family-Friendly Basement Flooring |

I would normally agree, janet, but this wasn't an inspiring space. It was kind of like an imitation of a vaulted foyer. The space is too narrow, I think, to pull it off. Before & After: From Ceiling Space to Playing Space |

It was incredibly thoughtful and made all the difference for us when we moved in, and made us feel very welcome. When Previous Homeowners Leave Useful Items Behind |

We were out of power for four days after the late-June storm in the DC area and neither landlines nor cell phones worked. Even the old school phones won't work if the line is dead. The cell service eventually came back before the power and the phones did, but it was spotty for quite a while. 6 Devices That Can Help You Trim Your Monthly Bills |

My son loved his "little metal cars," or as he called them, LMCs. They were Matchbox, Hot Wheels and everything in between. Many had been my little sister's toys, from the early 70s. Nice memories... thanks. Matchbox Cars: An Ode to Old School |
