Manage people's expectations: tell them a task will take longer, and they'll be delighted when you complete it 'ahead of schedule'.

In a similar vein, the company I used to work for had a couple of clients who insisted on haggling the price of a job down... so we quoted them a higher price than the job would actually cost, gave them a "discount", everybody was happy :D

Tip of the day:

When haggling in the bazaar, first offer half of what you are willing to pay - and not half of what the seller first demanded.

If you want an easy pet, get a tortoise.

My relative's tortoise is staying here for abit and the cage hasn't been cleaned for a few weeks but there's no smell and it doesn't require much attention say as dogs,cats,etc. Easy to take care of. He likes lettuce ! I was looking at him for an hour I find hiim cute :P

Hardening clay to fill tiny holes in the wall where ants come in.

To prevent lifestyle creep, put more money into investing/savings/paying down debt when you get more money depending on what part of the financial journey you are on.

Also learn to meal prep and prep leftovers for the freezer (and have freezer space). Saves so much time and money. Things like not putting noodles in chicken noodles soup before freezing and getting things "oven ready" as well as using things like a crock pot are mighty helpful imo. And I swear I'm not going to let her know all the pain I have known

Prevent insects and pests:


Plant mint in the ground surrounding your home (it grows rapidly and everywhere). Mice, moles, rats, gophers, squirrels, fleas, ticks, ants, and moths will stay away.

I be planting Mint next year. :P

Addition to this tip: If you have orb weaver spiders making webs on plants around your house leave them alone. They decimate the populations of flies, ants, fruit flies, green lacewings, etc.

Got any tips for stopping spiders getting in your house?
There were some whoppers last year! Usually start to appear in October.
