Bungalow plans, ideas needed for my architect
Q

I have built-in closets under the eaves of an American Bungalow style house in three bedrooms. They measure about 6'x 4', and my son even has a bed in one that is slightly larger, but the ceiling height is between about 2 1/2 and just barely 5 feet, so they aren't as efficient as they can be. In the master, I moved the rod to the back wall (it used to be only the depth of a hanger from the door) and down to a height to hang shirts and jackets, a little over 3' up, and this freed up the two existing short rods on the sides that are set about 4 plus feet up from the floor--long enough for most dresses, skirts and suits and such. This sort of U shaped arrangement works pretty well and the corners are for boxed out of season clothes and a short revolving (sort of a wire Lazy Susan) shoe rack.

Have you ever locked yourself out?

Hello Tom, Yes sadly I have had experience with this... first of all my heart sank, it was getting late and nippy and I had just popped outside, shut the door and heard the "click" After sitting on the step waving my arms around, swearing at the top of my lungs and muttering at my idiocy. I decided that I could save the day... So off I went in search of friendly neighbours.... and more importantly their hangers... I decided rather ingeniously that I could fashion a hook to open the latch from the cat flap opening with the help of said hanger and my arm and body shoved up against the door and what I could fit through the cat flap, in painful and oddly fashion (which on obtaining hanger from friendly peeps down the road... I had opened out and created a loop..... I say ingeniously because shoving my head through the cat flap to a rather interested furry head and two eyes... saw how it could easily work and indeed it almost did! Problem was the latch was just that bit too heavy to spring open the door as planned... Swearing, tries, and more swearing and a arm nearly take out of it's socket endured for about half an hour... My cat did not lend a paw and so... heart sinking again.. I set off once again in search of friendly neighbours.... and their phone... This time however, they were closer to home and upstairs having some grub. A chap was called and a chat and an hour or so later... Someone arrived...... Well................ what was used was known as "The flexible friend" Yes folks........ The Barclaycard!... And no......... it wasn't mine by which to pay for his expertise, jiggery pokery, costly and lengthy tinkering and extensive toolkit!!!!.... It was in fact the tool kit!!!! 1 wave of it in the lock and "Open Sesame" my door sprang open, like it was never closed.. $**£%$3%!!!!! I grinned inanely whilst shuddering at the thought of it... My innocent smiles did not save me a buck (as thinking it was so easy, I would be "let off" without the fee)... Sadly I thought wrong.. I almost needed my Barclaycard to pay for it... So the moral of the story is this... When you're a spastic... just get the plastic!! ........(and then hide it in a plant pot, along with a snifter you'll need when the realisation hits that you've been had! :)) (The door in the story is no more!) :) )

Hello folks! I haven't disappeared, just had whooping cough (yes, seriously!) with a garnish of gastric flu and torn muscles from coughing fits. So that has severely impeded our efforts (hubby's had it too, and it lasts around 3mths so we're not out of the woods yet!) with our new house (which I now describe as semi-derelict before we bought it) and so had no time/mental energy to properly get updated on what's been happening with you guys. Truth be told, I've started reading a few times & either got interrupted (mummy-ness) or fallen asleep, without finishing. I've missed this, but u guys, esp Monica & RoRo have been in my thoughts. Where to start?! I think I've taken in all that's happened in this thread since I went AWOL but might have missed some finer points. Monica, I'm so sorry to hear what u'v been through, with the RTA & the cowboy tiling / wallpapering on top! (& work always picks worst times to intensify - I just started on a Task Force this week, when shd really still be on sick leave). I mean, a marker?! Seriously?! Isn't it common knowledge / common sense to use a lightly applied pencil? Sounds like u r doing best thing by looking at it as a learning experience. Still, he deserves an honest review somewhere. Anyway, onwards and upwards, I'll look at the lounge link when I've finished this post. BTW I LOVE your artwork. Vivacious, bright and deep - is there an insight there? ;-) And RoRo, wow you've got a lot on your plate! We've been so frustrated with being held back on our projects by health, but u have taken on a bigger scale of project altogether, sounds like it's verging on municipal! U guys inspire me. :-) Thinking of starting a thread on our living room, it's the most 'civilised' room of the house so far, but I didn't take the north-facing position into account when I decided on a colour scheme of turquoise, grey and lime. (Doh!) So far I've made some headway on a concept I'm excited by, but it needs some tweaking so it doesn't feel 'cold' with the blue tone of the natural light. Are you up for sharing some of your thoughts on this??? Hope so. :-)

POLL: How often do you wash your bath towels?

Unfortunately, MRSA is all over, not just lurking in hospitals anymore. My nephew contracted it when he was about 18 months old. The doctors had strict guidelines to follow for prevention of further outbreaks for both him, and the entire family. My sister was told that everyone, not just families that are dealing with MRSA, should wash towels after every use with bleach as a means to kill any of the germs. bTW, my sister has always kept a spotless home, so it wasn't like this is a home with full of excessive germs.
