I will always let my son choose his environment. I think it gives children confidence and helps them learn how to make some decisions for themselves. We had a house once where my dad refused to paint. It was grey. The entire house looked like a prison. I hate grey and I am not afraid of bright colors like so many people seem to be - in fact my whole house is very cheerfully colorful and that is just how we like it. Now if my child picked beige then I might just cry. Letting Kids Pick the Paint Color |

I bought a house and later found out that the guy we bought it from killed our neighbor on the front porch. At first it bothered me mainly because we were not told and I think we should have been. However I'm over it now and I don't regret buying our house because as weird as it sounds I feel this house has a wonderfully beautiful vibe. I feel like this house loves us and is very comforting. So basically I would not worry about anothers history with the house but how do you feel as you spend time there? Would You Buy a House with a Dark History? Good Questions |

I won't get rid of my tv because we watch movies and game using it but I ditched the cable and could not be happier about it. Now our time is ours and we only watch what we really want to see and not just whatever crap may be on. You Should Sell Your TV |

In our house a dehumidifier is a must too. I don't care how much electricity it uses - to have all my wood rot out and my drywall literally crying with moister freaked me out too much. My house is a big investment and I must protect it. Do You Use A Dehumidifier? |

wow no way would any of this work for where I live. It has been over one hundred degrees for a month now and if I turned off my ac for 5 minutes the house turns about 85-90 degrees. (in the amount of time to vacuum all the filters) It's Just Too Hot! Run Your AC As Efficiently As You Can |

To me this is hoarding and in my small space it is impossible. Not to mention that I rarely use coupons anyway because I feed my family healthy no GMO or processed foods so there is not much savings to be had for me. Plus I don't know any store around me that actually allows that kind of couponing Weighing in on Extreme Couponing |

You have to make the choice yourself because everyone has their own opinion. Personally I HATE wood with a passion and would never buy a house with a bunch of it. Obviously that is not a popular thought. I would paint it but the next buyer may not. Do what makes you happy unless you are selling it within the next year or so.

My dogs also lick our microfiber sofa all the time and I will never buy another one because of that. The only thing that works for me is slip covers so I can replace them when cleaning no longer does the job. Suggestions for Pet Friendly Fabric & Couches? Good Questions |

We have had buckwheat pillows for about 4 years now and I will never go on vacation without my pillow. It is so supportive for me and my husband loves it because it never gets hot. It takes some getting used to but I do not even care or notice anything about it anymore. So glad I discovered them. Pillow Search: 3 Reasons to Like Buckwheat |
