Azreale asked:
Okay so I scraped all the acustic off my ceilings and want to skim them out. I just finished a terrible part in the kitchen where I put in some drywall myself and it just took me forever to smooth it out. Now my hand is all cramped up and I feel I can’t go on so I thought I could buy a texture gun and spray the stuff up on the ceiling and then go with my big putty knife and smooth it all out. Could this work? I’m not sure if I’m doing it right but scooping the first layer of stuff up there and then scraping it off is really hard. So if anyone knows if this will work please let me know.
Yes I’m talking about the layers I’m putting up. Instead of rolling them on can I spray them on and then smooth them out?

gaffney asked:
Has anyone followed through with this?
I got a letter in the mail saying that I won a grant for 39,000 dollars. It said I was pulled randomly from a list and it came with a pretty legit check for 4, 970 dollars, 3,150 of which are needed to pay government taxes to get the grant in full. I haven’t been able to find any info on the internet from someone who has gone through with this completely.
I was wondering if I could cash the check and not pay those “fees” since apparently the grant is in my name LOL.

KristenCO asked: I have an idea for a home improvement / reality show that would feature my house and family. The idea is totally unique and brilliant, if I do say so myself.
Are there agents that represent such a thing? What are they called? (I know there are actors’ agents and screenwriter’s agents, but this is different, right?) How do I find one?

juju b asked:
The property is financed through a private party, not a bank or mortgage co. Can you get a home equity loan to fix it up? Or a home improvement loan? even though there is a lien on the property?
