Thomas Clark+FollowI've only owned a house for a while and I already hate it ๐ฎโ๐จ๐ญI bought my first house a year ago and I already regret it. There is always something that needs to be done. It feels like I haven't had a single month to just relax!! One minute I am dealing with a yard full of dead grass and weeds, and the next my new dishwasher breaks. Then a hole in the basement fills up with water because of something called a sump pump. I am learning everything the hard way. I was a lot happier when I was renting and could just call maintenance to fix things. I love not sharing a wall with people, but I am starting to think homeownership is not for me ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ #HomeownerProblems #DIYFail #Home #HomeOwnership #HelpNeeded 3367Share
Thomas Woods+FollowMy grandma's house is falling apart but she refuses to leave ๐ตโ๐ซ๐ตโ๐ซ๐ตโ๐ซI am really worried about my grandma. Her mobile home from the 1970s is literally falling apart. The ceiling in the bathroom is cracked, and a beam in a bedroom has broken. There are puddles of water on the roof from dents, and the carpet is always damp. The ceiling fan in the kitchen is hanging on by just a few screws and the walls get hot when you use an outlet. The worst part is she refuses to move. She keeps saying it's all "fixable" and that she can do it herself. Her plan is to get a new roof and ignore all the electrical and interior problems. The whole place is full of mold and she has lost all of her hair in the last few months, but she doesn't think it's from the house. I have no idea what to do or where to even begin. She won't listen to me, and I am so worried for her health and safety. ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ I am hoping someone has been through a similar situation and can tell me how to handle this. #FamilyIssues #HomeRepair #ElderCare #SafetyFirst #AdviceNeeded #HelpNeeded #Home #HomeMaintenance #HomeMaintenanceRepair 96Share
Justin Guerra+FollowIs my husband a genius or just completely crazy? ๐The hedges in front of our house were really old and woody. We were going to replace them with some new plants but my husband had a completely different idea. Instead of tearing them out, he turned them into what he calls a "bonsai in progress." He spent hours shaping them. My daughter thinks he has completely lost his mind ๐๐๐ Is he a creative genius or is he just deranged? Although I do feel like it is a bold statement for our front yard ๐ #HusbandHumor #DIY #Gardening #Bonsai #HomeProjects #GeniusOrCrazy #Funny #Home 9933Share
Brianna Patel+FollowMy contractor's guy tried to stay the night at my new house ๐ฎโ๐จSo I hired a contractor to paint the inside of our new home. We have not moved in yet, so the place is completely empty. A couple of guys were working for the day. One of them stayed very late, and I started to get a weird feeling about it. When I left after dinner, I noticed a big duffle bag outside with toothpaste in the side pocket. I texted the contractor to ask what was going on. He said they were just working late to finish the job. Then, he just casually mentioned that he fully intended for the guy to stay the night in the house. I honestly cannot believe he planned for this guy to stay overnight without ever asking or confirming with me. I am completely weirded out by this. Am I overreacting, or is this a huge red flag? I am hoping someone can tell me if this is normal although it definitely does not feel normal at all. #ContractorIssues #HomeImprovement #RedFlags #HelpNeeded #HomeSecurity #HomeDecor #Home 1650Share

evanshaley+FollowLeftovers That Could Send You to the ERThink your fridge is safe? Think again! Some of the most common leftoversโlike rice, seafood pasta, potato salad, and even that innocent fruit saladโcan turn toxic shockingly fast. Bacteria love these foods, and reheating doesnโt always save you. Experts say things like cooked rice, creamy soups, and egg dishes can go from tasty to dangerous in just a day or two. Still keeping last weekโs casserole? You might want to rethink that! Whatโs the scariest leftover youโve eaten? #Home #FoodSafety #KitchenHacks7311Share
logan50+FollowIf someone offered 1.5โ2 times the market value of your home, would you sell?Letโs pretend someone knocks on your door and says they will pay you way over market value for your home. Iโm talking fifty to a hundred percent more than what it's worth, all in cash, right now. If your place is worth half a million, they are handing you between seven hundred fifty thousand and a million. Would you take it? What might hold you back could be that it's too hard to find another place, or maybe emotional or family ties to the house. And TBH, I have one of those houses people seem to want. For more than twenty years, strangers have shown up at my door asking if Iโd sell. ๐ One day I finally told a woman it would take 5.1 million. Word must have spread because a neighbor walking her dog later stopped and told me I was being ridiculous and asked if I really thought someone would pay that. That was the point! Since then, the knocks have slowed to almost none. #RealEstate #HomeOwnership #PropertyMarket #HousingMarket #Decisions #MoneyTalk #Home 139172Share
Susan Ball+FollowMartha Stewartโs Towel Hack Changed My KitchenYou know that drawer that never shuts because of messy towels? Martha Stewartโs got a folding trick thatโs a total game-changer. Fold your towels in thirds, then in half, and if you want to level up, roll them up like burritos! Not only does your drawer finally close, but grabbing one towel wonโt drag out the whole stack. I tried it and now my kitchen feels so much more organized. Seriously, give it a shot! #Home #HomeHacks #Organization437Share
