Jennifer Russell+FollowI Found White Stuff ALL OVER My Crawl Space. How Bad Is This Mold Going to BeI went down into my crawl space today for the first time in a while and got hit with a sinking feeling. There is white stuff absolutely everywhere down there now, covering the wood and surfaces. This wasn't here before. The really annoying part is that I had a plumber down there not long ago, and I am genuinely surprised he did not say anything about it. #Mold #HomeownerProblems #HelpMe #DIY 42Share
Jennifer Russell+FollowI Went Into My Attic for Christmas Lights and Found This. What Is That Blue Stuff?I have only been in the house for about a year—my anniversary is next week. I included a picture of the scene. I have absolutely no idea what I am looking at. There is this strange blue-green discoloration on the wood and a bunch of black specs scattered all over. #AtticNightmare #HomeownerProblems #WaterDamage #MoldScare #HelpMe 308194Share
malonestephen+FollowMy son changed his oil at home to save money... He should have just left it aloneI am so frustrated right now. My son wanted to be responsible and save a few dollars, so he decided to change his car's oil in the driveway. It seemed like a good idea at the time, until I came outside. Now there are huge oil stains all over the asphalt. The worst part is that oil can ruin the pavement and ends up seeping into the ground, which is just terrible for the environment. I know he meant well, but this is a whole new problem. #ParentingStruggles #DIYFail #CarMaintenance #Oops #HomeownerProblems #LifeLessons #Cars 209305Share
