  1. I just tore up my front yard to put in a driveway. We had St A and I was considering making a change. The problem is I start looking at cost. I would need roughly 21-24 pallets to cover the area I really want done. I could get away with St A and only need 10 pallets (there is still some st a alive I believe). My backyard is all St A as well but I’m going to hold off until I put in a pool. The driveway went over budget, so I’m trying to keep costs in check. Could I seed and be successful with Bermuda? I’ll add that my sprinklers run off a well so if I need to water heavy to start that’s not an extra expense.
  2. Not to nitpick, but you’re talking about BlackRock. And what they are doing is a problem. They are using their size and ownership to dictate policy within companies that might not be in everyone’s best interest.
  3. Met the neighbor this evening. Couldn’t have gone better. He apologized for the guy cutting too much. He’s doing a lot of landscaping and going to put some new trees in the area. He came up with all of that without me having to say anything. I’m good with it and glad it didn’t turn into a bad situation.
  4. This is what I was looking for. This is what I want to do. I don’t want to get into a big deal and I think this can be pretty simple fix.
  5. In September we moved into a new house. Same week, neighbors moved in. A couple weeks ago they had a guy out clearing their property. I went over and spoke with the guy, letting him know he was really close to property line and I didn’t want my trees cut down. He assured me they weren’t getting that close. A week later I had the property staked out and sure enough, they took out a slice on my side. It’s a curved section maybe 15-20 ft long and 5-6 feet at the deepest spot. There were a few mature trees (oak/pine) and brush. I went over the day it was staked and took pictures. Wife who lives there came out to talk. She tried to tell me it was full of junk and they were just cleaning it out (it wasn’t). Told me she didn’t realize they needed to survey before and “oops, sorry”. Husband was out of town and has now been back a few days. I thought he might come over and talk, but that’s probably not going to happen. Should I just let this go and know that everyone now sees the lines? Should I go knock on his door and say WTF? I’m assuming we’re going to be neighbors for a while and I’d like to not be enemies. At the same time, they cut trees down on my property and that’s not ok.
  6. Update on this. Terminal block on back was broken so the timer didn’t have power. Fixed. Repair guy told me he doesn’t do work on SpeedQueen very often (they don’t have issues). Said they are the best options out there.
  7. troublefreepool.com Check the forums there. Everything you need to know. I use their test kit and app. Simple
  8. We were at TriSupply in town that’s moving and had everything on sale. Bought SpeedQueen washer/dryer for huge discount. Went to put the power cord on and the terminal block is broken. Bypassed it and have it up and running. Timer doesn’t seem to work so we’re having it serviced (under warranty - TriSupply is handling). Aside from that little issue, wife is extremely happy.
  9. You popped on the tickets that came up real quick. I told my wife we should jump on those. I think you made a good deal
  10. Taking my 10yr old son to his first TX/OU. Most of the time I’m good to stay home, but this one is for him.
  11. What’s driving me crazy is the lack of tickets available. Then, in a week or two I’ll hear from all sorts of people how they couldn’t get rid of their tickets.
  12. I’m also looking for 3. Wonder if we could get a better deal on 6 together? 3 is that shit where a seller is going to end up with a single. The thought of prices being lower at 8AM on Saturday does leave a little gambling spirit going.
  13. They did an amazing job not fucking up the rest of your yard. My whole yard was trashed.
  14. Make sure someone pays that mortgage. Edit - had a client pass away in 2012. Kids were scattered far and wide. Took some time to locate her son (he had joined a monastery). By the time they got everything moving the bank had foreclosed the house. They tried to fix it but we’re unable (either didn’t have enough $ or smarts - probably both).
