I'm new to DIY/homeownership and looking to repaint my powder room. This is what the pipe coming from the toilet looks like. How can I make this look nicer? The circular (painted) piece of metal is not firmly attached to the wall and the whole thing moves when I pull on it. I don't even know where to begin but I do know that any sort of plumbing is not in my wheelhouse... TIA for your help!
We're visiting ONP in a few weeks and had booked 3 nights (July 15-18) in Port Angeles at Olympic Inn and Suites. The hotel had mixed reviews but it was affordable and a big selling point was the outdoor pool for our kids. Unfortunately, I've just now discovered that the pool is currently closed for maintenance and they don't know if it'll be open when we're there. Between that and reading the reviews more closely, I'm starting to worry that it'll be a terrible experience staying there, especially for 3 nights. Does anyone have any recent reviews? Do we have any chance of finding an alternative this late in the game? Maybe snagging a cancellation at somewhere like Sol Duc or Crescent Lake or is that so unlikely I shouldn't bother trying?
I've just recently discovered uniqlo and bought a few things from their closest store a few weeks ago. A few items didn't work out for me and I'd like to return them but the store is about 40min away (longer with traffic) and it's just hard to get out there. Has anyone returned by mail an in-person purchase? I found a form on the website it says to print out and send with the items but it doesn't give very specific info on where to send it or what carrier to use and I don't want to do it wrong and not get the refund. I know there is a $7 return fee but that seems worth it since gas these days would cost more + my time. I really wish there was a closer store as I would definitely shop at uniqlo more often!
I no longer use facebook for keeping up with actual friends but I've stayed on the platform because the groups have been quite helpful for learning about opportunities in both my community and my niche job interests. However, in the last few years, the search function has become basically unusable. I used to easily be able to go to my community moms group and search "summer theater camps" (for example) and find many relevant posts about what I'm looking for. Now, the search results maybe have one post that contains the word "theater" but is otherwise completely irrelevant and the rest of the results have no connection to my search. I've also had it where I search a group for a post or topic I know I've seen before and nothing relevant comes up. This is insanely frustrating and completely removes what was previously really helpful about facebook. Why have they changed it? Do they think this will cause people to stay glued to their screens more so that they never miss a relevant post? Or that they'll get distracted trying to sift through the irrelevance and thus spend more time on the platform? It makes me so angry to know that there is a resource with great and relevant information that the company purposely made it harder to access. Has anyone found a way to return to how it used to function? Ugh.
