    Insulation Tips and Tricks

    I just got the bill for power the other day and I was alarmed to see almost $400. It did include the time I had my family over, but they were only there for one week. The washer, dryer and dishwasher was being used daily, and for whatever reason they cranked all the heat dials up, so it's...

    Need Advice on A Good Response to a Requester

    So I'm in the middle of doing a multi-piece request for someone.

The stages are very slow and patient, but I can't seem to adequately describe it without it feeling rushed, bloated, or repetitive. So, how...
