How do I get rid of this horrible wall texture?
Comments (15)OK, you guys and some folks over in the Old House forum have talked me down off the ledge. We've put the sledgehammers down and are going to get lots of GW advice and attempt to make this little house period-appropriate, within the confines of our budget and my needs for comfort and beauty. The texture stays for now. I'm going to be posting over in Old House to vet our design choices and figure out how to work with a plaster house, since this is our first one. Feel free to join me over there and offer your opinions and advice. And thanks in advance. :-)...See MoreGet rid of half bath in exchange for pantry or bigger kitchen?
Comments (33)Off the subject : knee pain New floors will hopefully help your knee. You may want to try a cushion work matt with floor grip until you get new floor in front of sink or stove for your knee. I have several aches these days,too. There are lots of options of cushion mats online. Make sure it's anti-slip.

Should I get rid of these bougainvillea?
Comments (38)Thanks everyone for all the advice! I took out both giant bushes, but @olychick I left one bougainvillea! I couldnt bear to remove it as the wild birds ove it. The landscapers I hired were terrible! They did not finish the job. All they did was remove one bush and a couple dead plants. They were terrible. Luckily the nursery that came out planted everything and removed the other bush. The mastic was just too big and didnt fit the landscape so the nursery took it back. They did an amazing job planting things. I will add some fillers in between the plants but I’m waiting for it to cool down. Now I just need to find a new mailbox!...See Morekl23
