Hi, Folks! We have moved from southern California to northern New Jersey. I thank everyone for all of your advice and information as I was getting the house spruced up for sale. Selling a house in this market (and under the time constraints of my husband’s relo) was no small feat!
A lot of our stuff is in storage while we look for a house to purchse. That includes almost all my tools, which I figured I wouldn’t need while we are in a rental.
BIG mistake. I’d forgotten that rentals often receive little maintenance, and that much of it is slapdash. I have been scraping off “flung” caulk and paint, fixing doors, and trying to figure out why some things were done the way they were. Still haven’t figured out why there was an open Erlenmeyer flask in the toilet tank.
Anybody know a good home-improvement center in northern New Jersey?
Janet

Where in Northern New Jersey?
Hey, what are you doing here in the middle of the day? LOL
Me? What are you doing home already?Went and saw that kid's parents. Had a nice chat.When did you leave, just after me? No over time for you, huh?Glenn
I stuck it out until about 3. My elbow cr*pped out so much so that I couldn't hold my spackle knife. More oxycodones, and a few beers for me tonight.
You find your dad's hearing aids? Or are you just going to let him have peace and quiet?
I hope things worked out for your son.
Unfortunately for him I found them.Unfortunately for me I'm going there tomorrow to try and move more of my mother's stuff out of the way. Going to drive me nuts.Sorry, Janet. Didn't mean to highjack the thread. Where are you located? I'm in Wanaque.Glenn
I'm in Bergen County and I don't know what stores are where. Ordinarily, I would browse through the yellow pages for resources, but we ordered phone service through Cablevision, and it turns out they don't provide telephone books. And I really, REALLY want to avoid having to get to the far side of Route 17. That is one scary road.Janet
What town? Bergen Co. is pretty large.Glenn
