Copies to the EPA, to the local community, to state agencies, etc. A lot of the appendices were 11x17 maps that needed to be folded so they'd fit in a 3 ring binder. Probably 1000-1500 pages by the time we were done, but I didn't try to count the second day!<br /><br />MiKael - check out Officeteam/Accountemps. It's not a lot of money, but you can make it pretty flexible - I can say "I can't work next Tuesday" or "I need a week off" and they're fine with it.Funderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06358687366401205336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8773599297895528113.post-39078679818076752982011-04-14T20:20:55.401-07:002011-04-14T20:20:55.401-07:00Ok, finally got a minute!

I think I'd rather just put up doors I don't hate that don't weigh 100 lbs each, even if I end up spending some money on them. Track doors are such a nightmare new in box, I can't imagine trying to find a new top track and wrestling those heavy awful things back in the house and fighting to reinstall them.<br /><br />I'm glad I'm not the only one who likes to look at one's clothing! It actually encourages me to use the closet, instead of cramming my 5 favorite outfits in oen drawer of my dresser, LOL. <br /><br />After tomorrow, I'll work Fridays til the job is done - it's 3-4 weeks. I just wasn't going to rearrange my life to work <i>this</i> Friday! After this job, I'll need a week or two off to put the fence back up, arrange a garage door dude, hang some closet doors, etc. The extra money will be nice, as long as I don't break anything else in the meantime!Funderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06358687366401205336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8773599297895528113.post-65486880598791593912011-04-14T17:54:25.995-07:002011-04-14T17:54:25.995-07:00A friend is looking for mirrors for her arena, but...A friend is looking for mirrors for her arena, but it is pricey.

In fact we even have a glass door on our commercial refrigerator so I can stare at it without opening the door. <br /><br />I have NEVER gotten my home fixed up the way I want it until just before selling it to someone else.<br /><br />BillAllenspark Lodgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06390004633731055728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8773599297895528113.post-19842370856133709502011-04-13T18:42:14.771-07:002011-04-13T18:42:14.771-07:00I'm with you on the porn doors.

I'm sure Dixie will appreciate not being confused by riding into and then back out of camp like that.<br /><br />I need to find a job even with my priorities and that really sucks. Folding paper precisely might just work for me though.

I dislike bifold doors intensely (though that's what I have) because, well, they just bug me. That, and the cat always jumps to the top of the bifold when they are open and then I can't close it without ending up with claw marks all down the wood.<br /><br />But if I was getting a house ready to rent out? I'd just get some new track and stick the mirrors back up. <br /><br />Definitely, I don't like closets without doors - I'm too much of a neat freak for that, and my closet NEVER looks neat!Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08231007979360748217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8773599297895528113.post-91481650272466423532011-04-13T11:47:07.174-07:002011-04-13T11:47:07.174-07:00The new look on your blog...love love love it!

Having said that, I dislike bi-fold doors as I've pinched my finger(s) in them numerous times. The house we put an offer in on has doors that swing out, two to a closet. Would something like that work for your closet?<br /><br />And I agree with BECG, if you can replace the track, I'd just put the Porn doors back up.

Glad to hear that Dixie's doing well even if she has no idea what's coming. ;) As for renting/selling a house, it's amazing the things the realtors tell you to do/fix, isn't it? But hopefully it will rent out ASAP and you'll make a tiny profit, or at least break even. Also, keep track of all of your expenses, since they're tax deductible on rentals.jenjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01737679332792618499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8773599297895528113.post-82792259937694175442011-04-13T06:39:00.859-07:002011-04-13T06:39:00.859-07:00"Look, money's nice and all, but I have p..."Look, money's nice and all, but I have priorities."<br /><br />OMG..LMAO...C.l.a.s.s.i.c!!!
