First time I have looked at AT in a couple months. Agree with Greenheronfarm. It is impossible for me to believe someone would forget a photographer was coming to shoot their home.

Looks like what ya really need to have a good looking closet is 400 matching slacks and 300 almost identical shirts. Just imagine that purse hanger in the closet with all the slacks or a tiered hanger. Instant crammed up.

All Publix all the time. Good stuff, clean, fair prices and nice employees. There is really not much competition in Central Fl yet they have never lowered the standards.

I enjoy reading on my iPad and I have super sensitive eyes. I still get the majority of my books the public library because of cost, but preview them on the iPad. I have used an older nook and it is great to read from but klunky to operate. When I first started e-reading I thought I would miss the feel of a book but as soon as you are into the story you don't care.

Uh huh. Lets see some pictures of these styling tricks done in the average apartment or house. Everything looks great when you have high ceilings, fab fireplaces, big beautiful windows or--what is that in #4 a metal ceiling? #3 and #8 look like average people rooms and the "tricks" fall flat. The rest of the rooms don't look like they are inhabited by persons looking to improve without spending a dime.

Laundry room = humid, heat, traffic. White painted floor over tile? Prepare to remove the peeling paint, paint over areas that wont come clean of scuff marks, and eventually remove the tile. Other than that I loved the after, this is a true transformation.

I sold draperies in Ft Laud./Miami in the 60s and every one of these pics look like the condo sales/showrooms of the era. I like pink but find all the frills and gew gaws suffocating.

Every human enterprise makes mistakes. Look at Netflix. They listened to their consumers and are better for it. Please go back to the old format.

My adult son lived with me for 2 years, very ill, weight 145 height 6'2". Initially I fed him the opposite of "diet food"--tons of carbs and junk food, food supplemental shakes and so forth. Didn't work. We changed to a balanced healthy diet with lots of vegetables, healthy fats and leaner meats and dairy and he began working out daily as his health improved. It took 2 years but he is 180 and all lean muscle. The exercise stimulates appetite for him even though he is burning calories. I also highly recommend seeing a registered dietitian as they usually know a lot more than your PCP about these things. My son has HIV and maintaining his weight is essential for his survival.
