My hair is short! I don't have what I would call good pictures yet, but this gives the idea. [link]

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

OMG, Brenda, what a cute hair cut!

Seska, that is a darling house. I hope you get it. If you get it, I may mail myself to you in a big box, because I want to live in a house that nice.

Shir, I think it's worth the effort of a little detective work, missed connections, local newspaper website or something.

There might be other stuff I meant to say, but I can't remember now.

Brenda, very cute hair cut.

Oh wow, you meant short short, Brenda! It looks cute, and really thick!!

OK, two homeowner aka "I've always been a renter and crap, now *I'm* the landlord" questions. (1) The one toilet is bizarre, in that when you try to flush, it's SO HARD to push the lever. Like, you have to put all your weight on it. At which point, it finally agrees to flush, and seems to flush fine. But clearly, not right. WTF? (2) The kitchen sink faucet, when you turn it off, keeps flowing for a sec (more than just a few drops). What does it mean? How do I stop it?

I am certain the first has SOMETHING to do with the ballcock.

(Don't know exactly what, but I wasn't passing that up)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

You might be able to shorten the chain that connects the lever to the rest of the apparatus. I could show you, but I don't know the names of anything to talk you through it: if you take off the cover you might be able to figure it out just by looking and waggling the lever.

The faucet problem I haven't run into.

Love the hair, brenda!

All is well that ends in pizza.

What -t said. either shorten the chain, or get a new lever (about $5) and have the chain connected to the furthermost hole, to get more ...leverage.

As far as the kitchen sink, what brand is it? Is it a single lever? Even "washer less" faucets have replaceable parts, and usually cheaper than replacing the whole thing.

Take a picture of the Kitchen faucet and inside of the toilet tank and find an Ace hardware and show them.

It's amazing how simple the flushing process is.
