Lunchtime Mini Mandala Adult Coloring PageHere is the ideal stress buster for that busy day at work. This mandala is small enough to color during your lunch break, yet complicated enough to relieve your stress before finishing the rest of the day's work.

 

Refurbishing a Small Trash CanI will just say that my bathroom plumbing is 45 years old and the original commode is a bit sensitive. Let's just leave it at that. So, I have started putting my TP in a waste basket. But those colors had to go!

 

How Many Squares in a Fat Quarter?While sorting through the my stacks of crafting supplies I found this useful information card and wanted to share it with other quilters.

 

Bobby (Tabby Colored Manx)He was found in a litter of 5 and raised from a tiny baby.

 

Recycled Noodle Cup LampThe best thing with cup noodles is that the containers are recyclable. You can use it in organizing your work desk. It can be a pen stand or you can put tiny things there that can mess up your table. Aside from using it as an organizer I created something different.

 

What Is This Houseplant?A lady I clean for gave me this plant out of her green house room and it has not been doing so well since I brought it home.

 

Hooked Up Mower Battery to Wrong Terminals?In the fall I disconnected my standing mower battery, as I should, neg (black) first, then positive (red). However over the winter I did not remember how the battery fit into the slot. I did not confirm neg to black, pos to red, I just used the cable lengths to "logically" put them where I should.

 

Cat Peeing on Sofa?I have had my 2 cats since they were about 9 weeks old and I've never had a problem with them untill now. One of them has started peeing on the sofa and chairs in the living room. I have tried multiple things such as cleaning the litter boxes more often, getting more litter boxes, and cleaning the spot multiple times.

 

Name Ideas for an Organizing Business?My friend and I will be starting a business as a "professional organizers", we have several ideas in mind for the name, but in our native language (Spanish), and we do not know if it makes sense in English.

 

Abandoned Wild Mallard Nest?A mallard has chosen a very small space in front of our condo to nest for the 2nd year. Last year was perfect and she hatched beautiful ducklings. This year she left her nest yesterday morning at 7, after running and squawking throughout the parking lot, and hasn't returned. It's been over 24 hours.

 

Identifying a Houseplant?I have a plant I just bought from a rummage store. Of course, the salesman was not very helpful on identifying this plant.

 

Singer Machine Only Sewing Straight Stitch?I have a Singer model 2662. It's supposed to be able to stitch 38 different ways, but it only does a straight stitch. I'm just learning how to sew and bought it used, so I don't know how to maintain it. How often to clean it or oil it or anything else.

 

Whirlpool Washer Won't Spin at High Speed?My washer is spinning, but seems not to be going in high speed. What would cause this on a Whirlpool model #wtw5100sqo?

 

Cleaning Soot from Walls?The prior tenants in an apartment heated the place primarily with a wood burning stove. The walls now have a lot of soot on them. We anticipate painting and question should we clean the walls first or prime/seal them and then paint.

 

Identifying a Houseplant?I am wondering what kind of plant this is. Apparently a long stem grows on it with the flower on top.

 

Treating Kittens with Eyes Crusted Shut?I am looking for a home remedy for baby kittens with their eyes stuck shut from discharge.

 

Craftsman Mower Won't Start?I used this Craftsman LT2000 just 2 days ago. It ran good, but I had enough of the "no mow in reverse" BS so I did some research and found you can just unplug the connector, so I did and the mower hasn't run since.

 

Puppy Started Pooping in Her Bed?I have a 5 month old Border Collie Lab cross. She is house trained, but for some reason all of a sudden she has started messing her bed no matter how many time she is let out during the night. She will occasionally whine to go out for the loo in the night, but then will still mess her bed.
