we are leaving Indianapolis, IN Saturday morning, destination, Dallas, Texas - the catch - we don't have to be in Dallas until Wednesday night (business meeting Thursday and Friday) - so we want to find out-of-the way, interesting, even wacky places to stop on the way - Memphis, TN, Arkansas, TX or any other great place on the way to stop and see

A judgment was granted against my daughter from a rental property owner in the amount of $1244.00 she has paid the judgment....but also just received an Order to Appear - since she has paid, will the property owners drop the new deal or how does that work, any one know?

We want to remodel our kitchen, two bathrooms, finish the basement and add on to our house (we currently have 2 bedrooms we need 3) where do we start, we have a drawing of our vision, but it is by no means professional - we live in central Indiana and want to get started, but we don't know what do to next - do we hire contractors or architects? So many questions!

I'd like to know exactly what the responsibility of a real estate agent is? What does he/she do to get 3% or more commission? My home is up for sale (since Oct 1) and this joker has only been to my house once and that was for me to sign the contract....thank goodness it is up in March! The home has been shown a dozen times by other realtors; I had one offer that was $25,000 less than the listing price which was ridiculous, my agent tried to get me to sell if for that since the two homes in the area were listed at that price...only I investigated and found they were listed at that price because they are both SHORT SALES....he didn't bother to disclose that, if he even bothered to find that out (it didn't take me but five minutes)...he never had an open house............just curious, I'm getting rid of this guy when his contract is up...I feel there is way more he should be doing, but maybe I'm wrong

My home in Indiana is for sale, I have it listed for $174,000; the only thing it needs is new windows; other than that, I had new carpet installed throughout, both bathrooms completely redone, the kitchen gutted and redone and the entire house painted this Fall; it has a 1 year old roof, furnace, water heater, invisible fence, 1 acre lot with mature trees, approx 2100 square feet; I'm getting an offer this evening......what's a fair settling point? Curious what you guys think....

Should I put my stemware in my china cabinet right side up or upside down? I just moved and got my china cabinet set up, unpacked, washed and dried all my stemware and put it in the cabinet upside down, hubby said it looked funny and should be right-side up; we were both wondering if it mattered or how other people do it, just curious.

I used to be able to get whole garlic cloves with hot red peppers in olive oil at Meijer's, they don't sell them anymore, got rid of their olive bar; then I found them at Kroger's in their olive bar, but they have quit carrying them also....I tried just peeling garlic and adding the red peppers and olive oil, but something is not right, the garlic is WAY TOO hot...unlike what I was able to buy, any ideas where to buy it or how they really make it?

We just received an invitation to a house warming party from my husband's nephew and girlfriend...included was a card telling us (and everyone that got an invitation I imagine) where they were registered. My first thought upon seeing the registration card was, No, they didn't. Is that what people do these days? I was really turned off by it and was just curious. I have gone to house warming parties before, we took a gift, but there was never a registration card in the invite...what do you guys think?

notice how the movie stars and celebrities are behind Obama???? it's cause they make MILLIONS and won't be affected!!!! The people that WILL be affected are any families, US, making between $40,000 and $250,000 a year........WE will be paying more taxes, WE will bear the brunt of Obama's plan.....don't do it!!!! Small business men and women EMPLOY the MAJORITY of all Americans; they are in the $40,000 to $250,000 income bracket Obama has slotted...they will have to pay MORE taxes, they will LAY off employees, people like you and me; or they will go out of business all together.........OBAMA will throw us into a full blown DEpression!!!! get your home gardens ready!

Attention Parents....only 4 weeks before school starts again!!!! YeeHaw...who is ready to reclaim their homes! No more humans slouching on the couches, no more eating at all hours of the day and night; no more sinks full of dishes, having the ability to find your hairbrush right where you left it -- in the bathroom! No more bickering between siblings.....ahhh...just 4 weeks left! Don't get me wrong, I love the little darling's.....but at 19 and 22 its time for them to move on!! :)

This is not a question.....

Attention all you wives to be:

The rules have changed........

After you have a certified copy of your marriage license; go to your local social security office......fill out the paperwork (take your drivers license and a birth certificate)...it takes 48 hours to get your name changed in the system.

WAIT - 48 hours before you go to the license branch to change your drivers license. The BMV has to verify your social security number these days and it takes 48 hours from the time you submit your paperwork to the social security office.

BMV - AFTER you have waited 48 hours from the time you had gone to the social security office; take your social security letter of name change application, take your birth certificate; obviously, your current driver's license, AND find letters that were addressed to you at your new address

hope this makes sense; hope it helps someone......congrats

one of my friend's wives just died......we (my husband, me, he and she) have been friends for years...she got this dastardly disease, PICKs, similar to alzheimer's, but it gets you younger....anyway she just died of complications from it.....we have lived with her being our friend for years....have gone through it with her.....HERE's the deal....her husband, who I am not judging....got connected to, fell in love with HIS wife's caretaker....which...I can understand, the need for companionship...hell just SEX....BUT....SHE is his best buddies wife....(he has known him since 2nd grade....they are 47....a long long time).....how do I react? I hate him right now...I never want him(them) to be my friends ever.....but.....

I've stayed out of all of it because I don't want to stress my step daughter...what should I wear? I'm not included in the mother of the bride - mother of the groom conversation and I'm not saying I should be....what what am I suppose to wear? I have picked out a couple of different pantsuits that look nice...but what color? I was going for a color to go with my husband (dad of the bride) but I want to fit in and not offend anyone...help!

Daughter and her fiance are talking about doing this.....I had never heard of it; go on a 7 day cruise but for 3 of those days you have your family there and that is when you actually get married....??? doesn't sound right to me to have family 'along' on the honeymoon.......

okay, it wasn't the battery or alternator; the mechanic just called me....rod and /or engine bearings blown; I can 1) junk it; 2) replace engine with GM re-built $4700 with 3year 100,000 mile warranty or 3) replace with used engine $3,250 - with 55,000 miles on it...1 year 24000 miles parts and labor warranty.....

We're going to get married (second for both of us) I haven't called around yet, anyone know what we need to do to get the license?

Daughter was driving the car ... car suddenly died...would not restart; had it towed home. Car will not turnover...., can I buy the device to plug into the computer to read any codes? I'd like to have some idea what the problem is before I have it towed to the repair shop; had head gaskets replaced one month ago....

My room is ready to paint (had to prime everything to get walls clean and smooth) do I paint the ceilings first? walls, trim? or trim, ceilings, walls? ceiling will be white, trim will be white and walls will be yellow.....

Okay, I've got the room completely primed and ready for real paint, but I'm not sure what the easiest and most importantly best results will be as far as the order of which to paint first; the ceilings will be white, the trim white and the walls yellow; do I start with the trim, then the ceilings then the walls? or ceilings walls trim??? Suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
