    Finished wallpapering large kitchen in 100 yr old house - don't try this at home?

    1. thongd4me

      thongd4me

      Yes - the removal part seemed hard at first but applying the paper was harder in the end; many oddly shaped moldings to work around. The old stuff just screamed "faded wallpaper" and was due to go. There was only one layer to remove and when I caught on that you only have to apply some water it came right off.

    I can hear frogs in the pond outside,but I cannot see them. Kinda like the USCIS Croaking & Invisible

      Sounds very high-tech; with this economy I suspect many of the frogs are part-time consultants...

      With the tie A looks like he's robbing the cradle; without it you make a cool couple! The K-1 will be in the bag sooner than you know it.

    - does anyone know when the IRS opens? Is it CA time?... what state? Ugh. I'm trying to call from Aus and so far "7am" isn't 7am or 8am IA time...

    1. thongd4me

      thongd4me

      The above is the contact info, along with the operating times; however you may be able to find an IRS "volunteer" at your local consulate. Apparently they don't have chat or email tax help. Good luck.

    FYI to all my VJ buddies: Dad is doing well. He most likely had a stroke and is now in permanent high-level care. Mum's doing better dealing with it but it's still hard. Thanks for the kind wishes all.

      As you may have noticed I'm often direct and blunt and don't consider the gender of the poster when I'm replying, only the message. Maybe I can twist that into a compliment, LOL. What you posted made sense to me because it made sense is what I mean. Tony certainly found a gem.

      How absent-minded I can be - I addressed you as Tony in my IM and forgot to glance at the "gender" icon in your profile! Won't make that mistake again; hope dad is doing as well as possible.

      Next time I make a mistake like that please smack me around!

      That's tough; my aunt also had a stroke many years ago & I've been there and saw how helpless one can be. This is not a pleasant part of life but one which can affect all of us. There are two sad things associated with stroke victims, one being the memory of your relative in happier stronger days and the other the futility of his or her resolution to lick this debilitating condition. Be strong & be well.

    She started 2nd PT job yesterday; this week she's scheduled to work 50 hours, 7 days a week.

    1. thongd4me

      thongd4me

      Slavedriver, haha. I would have preferred she hold off a little longer to get a job and concentrate first on passing the drivers' test - she was over-anxious to get a job as she had worked for 26 years straight and got frustrated when she didn't get one right off the bat. Second or third swing was the charm ;)

      Look at the timelines for the AOS folks who applied at the same time as you. It won't be long.

      The exact wording from the NYS DMV: "If you become a resident of NYS, you must apply for a NYS driver license not more than 30 days after you become a NYS resident."

      I'm teaching her to drive now, the driving school will come later when she gets her learning permit - The SSN will come in around 2 weeks but that time will still be within the 30-day limit after which she has to apply for a NY State license.

      She is a licensed driver (has Thai license) - she has 30 days from green card approval to apply for US license. When SSC comes, she will apply for learner's permit.

      First rule of house buying - the RE agent will ALWAYS lie - they told us there was town water (no, a well) and they over-stated the acreage by about 25%
