whenever i do things everything have to be perfect.
like when i eat say I’m eating cereal, like the amount that i eat has to be even in my mouth like i have to have two pieces on the left side and two on the right. When im walking its the same if its a tile floor my feet have o be even on the tiles and stuff.
Getting sleep is hard for me because i will just lay awake all night and just think about everything, which often makes me think of the negatives of everything like mine and my boyfriends relationship up and downs and i tend to get depressed. I just feel like its taking over my life and its annoying.
is there anything i can do?
if i were to go to the doctor would they be able to do anything?
i dont want counseling or therapy. 
thanks.
I never understoo why the gov’t needs flashy buildings with granite and marble tiles. Why cant they just have a concerete box building or something basic? It’s the taxpayers money. Everyone knows granite and what not costs a ton.

And its not just the state but the city is bankrupt too. It is laying off teachers and other city workers.
I like granite, but it’s too traditional for me. Also, I know that a lot of people don’t consider it an upgrade anymore because it has become so popular. I want to put equity into my home and I’m not sure that in 5 yrs when I want to sell it, that granite will be as profitable then as it is now. I did here that silestone was becoming a new alternative, but I was also thinking about stained concrete countertops or butcher block. My cabinets are white and a few have glass in the doors. This will be a DIY project so any tips would be appreciated. Also, what color do you think would work best with the cabinets (paint and countertops)?
I plan on doing a neutral back splash like this or something like this, preferably the long tiles that look like stone bricks: http://www.burkesfloorcovering.com/backs…
The floor will be a dark handscraped hardwood like this: http://img.diytrade.com/cdimg/698642/644…
or brick pavers for flooring like this:http://www.theportstonestore.com/images/…
I have also thought about doing a butcher block countertop like this, and I think it will look great with the hardwood floor:http://www.spekva.dk/graphics/interface/…
here is a pic of the kitchen we are remodeling, none of this is my personal style, this is from when the previous owners had it:http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2457/3876…
As you can see, it is small. We plan on putting in stainless steel appliances, and getting rid of the saloon doors. My personal style is more like Anthropologie or french country or shabby chic, i love vintage stuff.
I know this is a lot of information, but I would love any input!! Especially pictures
this is becoming a ***** trying to scrape it off, I am going to put ceramic tiles on the floor instead. Any ideas how to get the glue off?
I put in a new bathroom floor and when I tore up the floor in the first place, I was going to remove the flange as well. I noticed screws in the top of it, so I unscrewed them but the flange wouldn’t budge. So I Googled flanges and I discovered that some flanges are directly connected to the pipe. So I thought I’d just leave it there and work around it. So I finished the floor and put the toilet back in place only to realize the bolts didn’t come through the holes, the floor is a good 1/4″ higher. So I Googled again and every site says to get new bolts. EXCEPT whoever installed the flange didn’t do it right. Apparently the screws are just straight through the flange in random spots and the bolts just come right through it. They are not in the slots they are supposed to be in. (The bolts come right through holes in the 9 and 3 sections of the flange if it were a clock while the slots they are supposed to be in are at 11 and 5.) It’s looking to me like the only solution in my realm of expertise is to cut the tile I just finished laying and then route through the underlayment I put down and have the toilet sit down in the floor. If anyone knows any other option to help out this layman handyman I would appreciate it.
We have bought a second hand house and we have finished doing the rooms up.
Except for the tiles that were already down in the hall and kitchen when we bought the house.
We can’t afford to take up the tiles as it would necessitate the relating of the cement and it would take a pick axe to take up the tiles leaving the houe in a mess for years regarding the dust etc – basically can not afford to have it done properly.
Does anyone have any ideas about how we insulate the tiles/floor as it is sucking the heat out of the house and leaving the hall and kitchen very cold most of the year round.
Any ideas would be appreciated. Thank you.
can be laid to serve as a drive way and the grass can grow through them?
I may be inheriting my parent’s house soon. They have beautiful Mexican tile on the kitchen countertops, but it’s a ***** to keep the grout clean. I’m wondering if it would be possible to lay some kind of thick clear, easy-to-clean material over the countertops, so that the tile would be visible but protected. What would be best for this purpose? I’m worried glass would crack if I put a heavy ceramic bowl down on it too hard, but I don’t know what sort of plastic would have the clarity I’m looking for. Also, what would the best way to keep the sheets in place? Building them into frames, then laying the frames over the tile? Or using some kind of adhesive patches around four corners?
Any help or ideas would be appreciated.
I am remodeling my kitchen and I textured the walls with a gun. I decided to leave the ceiling flat because it is straight without a lot of noticeable defects. There are some slight things I want to cover with some texture. Are there rollers available for this? Just wanting a light texture and do I need to use special paint?
Remodeling kitchen, tore cabinets out and found dead mice stuck on top of hot water heater and the dogs snuck in and found more on the floor i guess, i used decon a few months ago in the cabinets. What dangers and harmful effects may result and how quickly can it hit them?
