I wonder how they are going to enforce. Hope for our California neighbors that this drought turns around and things are better in the next couple of years.
:silly:
OMG that's so funny (and clever)
ATL- you reported us to Obama?
:floorlaugh::floorlaugh::floorlaugh::floorlaugh:
BTW: The repairman came for my new, water/energy saver washer.
He told me all about the new energy/water saving bull and said that my hot water is at the level (100 degrees) that the gov't has deemed necessary for saving energy.
The water level is also at the" correct" level (Pfttt).
He had all these gov't charts on his computer that I had to look at (wish I had copied the website)
He also said that I was lucky because the "levels" are going to be reduced starting, April 2015, again and my machine has much more water/heat than the new ones that will come out this year and onward!!!
Poor guy- he said he has had so many calls because of the gov't's policy on washers "energy" savings features, so, seems that there are lots of SWBBs around and not just on WS.
So even tho' I could return the machine, I'd still have the same problems with any new machine. Bahhhhhhhhhhh
:stormingmad:
. A beautiful bunch of people tho'.- they closed the trial thread and everyone came over to the Sidebar to talk about the murderer and spoiled all the fun )

... :yes: Kinda hits the nail on the head, IMO. Still, I think it's best that the killer gets LWOP... and she'd better.
for the killer and the "Jodi trolls" , Yeah, that too. :yes: JMO
If you are doing tile to hardwood, I suggest a separator that is flush to the floor vs. those that have a hump. This white piece (it is not wood, it is some type of stone???) showing is from my laundry room to the back hallway. I did as others suggested for tile, and did a darkish tile with a dark grout as I bring in Georgia clay from the yard when walking in from the garage through the laundry room.

OK, I'll put in my two cents as to putting in tile vs. hardwoods in your kitchen. I thought the same think when I redid mine. But I went with hardwood and OMG OMG it made the house look twice as large as the rooms flowed into each other with the same flooring. It was a SHOCK afterwards as to how large everything was once I did it. Plus, I don't like the cold on my feet from tile, unless you live in Florida. And I spend a lot of time in the kitchen, so standing on tile does indeed hurt my back.
And as to horror stories on putting in hardwoods... I purposefully went with a company that had a storefront so that they would not be "fly by night" installers in case I had a problem. (Putting in these pecan floors was over $10k, so wanted to ensure it was done RIGHT) Anyhoo, glad I did such as I had to have the installers RIP OUT the job twice when 1/2 finished each time.... a long story ... but so glad I did such and was able to get the owner out to review and make right (FYI first issue was the used the wrong sized trowel for the glue that was not specs to the installation... "not according to industry standards" and second time did not level kitchen as requested)
Off to do my laundryand waste water.... 'cause I can!
ETA: Trying to turn picture! :gaah: can't figure out how to rotate...GOT IT after 3 tries

and do at times regret not having the hardwood continued into the kitchen. And, yes, tile is harder on the old back...
