I am reminded that the Phoenixville code inspectors -- who come around each year -- look askance at the use of portable space heaters by tenants -- mostly bc of the dangers of tipping, damage to cords, and fire hazard from folks trying to dry damp clothing on them.

I listen to the podcast when I'm driving, cooking dinner, cleaning, folding laundry, and putting away clothes. 

We ate out less than a dozen times; I sewed my own maternity clothes; we only left town once (to get a check to mail back to Sallie Mae).

You know those new TSA Advanced Imaging Scanners that let you see women without their clothes on?

The cold doesn’t bother me much…probably because I wear 4-5 layers of clothing!!

(no high end car lots, expensive restaurants, fancy clothing stores, etc.).  

Are they more like department store cards indicating that she is splurging on clothes? 

Some of her requests so far has been:a) Remove closet door and few weeks later add them backb) Request to change direction of door (make it open another way)c) Request to change racks in closets (instead of clothes hanger, have racks).d) There are flees and mosquito (we increased lawn mowing frequency to 2/month; spoke to neighbors to manage their pets and some more measures)and many more.

They just need to bring their clothes and groceries, everything else should be there. 

The poured cement walls were ok, it just seemed that the soil around the home would just hold the water.It had a sump pump but I had to run the original 20ft drainage 75ft away from the home to alleviate any hydrostatic dampness still coming up through the floor.
