    high flow shower heads?

    huh, didn't realize this was such an issue. I have never removed a restrictor or was concerned about extra pressure. Still rocking what ever the builder put in 12 years ago, and it is basic.

    Best way to even out heat in 2 story house?

    Its hard to fight science. Without a door or something to block the heat transfer, there will always be a temp difference.

    Armchair Quarterback Architects - now is your chance..

    I was going to suggest the bigger shower. Small showers **** is you have to use them everyday. I would turn the kitchenette and get rid of the door. I also would not want my clean clothes across from my toilet. I would figure out a way to separate the bathroom and the washer/drier.

    Being prepared for the worst-case scenario...Someone breaking into your garage and robbing you blind

    I rely on cameras. Besides what I have, every house on my street in each direction has at least a door bell camera. Sometimes its nice to be in a neighborhood.

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    We started both of ours off with leases.. worked like a try before you buy, because when they were off lease prices were nuts. I had an issue with the transmission in my Durango and thought it might be a dud, but they replaced the valve body and has been great since. A 100% failure rate and...

    Shoved the two SUVs in the garage (mostly) and knocked out a couple oil changes. Finally got all my maintenance done during great weather!
