Hard to explain. Two person business, sales and consulting. We need a very small warehouse space, just enough to set up something that is about 12 feet long, 6 inches wide and 3 inches deep and to store a small amount of tools. Down toward Sweetwater Creek Park??? Or not that far?

You are correct about you paying the mortgage and them collecting the rent. Some want you to have something along the lines of a repair escrow but the ones I talked with didn't require it. It's been several years since I talked with the property management companies, but seems as though they all handled small repairs without your approval but anything large you had to approve. And that may be different if you have the repair escrow. I was also very impressed with PMU in Austell. They are on Clay Road. Don't have their phone number handy either. Sorry. They were actually the o

I know it's probably a long shot but I need help from my Pcommers. Hubby and I need an office/warehouse. Neither needs to be big. We need cheap rent, month to month lease OR short term (6 months or less). I know StorageXXtra has such available. We need what StorageXXtra has--the office and warehouse space together for one price. We need it easily accessible to 278/I-20. So the StorageXXtras on Poplar Springs Rd and Highway 92 would be fine. BUT, does anyone know if something similar is available around Powder Springs, Austell, Lithia Springs or Douglasville? Closer to I-20 wou

I was VERY impressed with Magnolia Realty in Douglasville. I'd give you a phone number for them but don't have one handy. They are in downtown Douglasville, near Gumbeaux. I was less impressed with the one mentioned in post #2. I guess it's because I like for people to be on time if I have an appointment with them. Edited to add: if you are renting to a friend, DEFINITELY use an outside property manager. It is so hard to be tough with friends or family. Should we ever rent our rental house again, we will use a property manager. It is worth the cost. A lot of the time, money

I'd gladly trade my MIL for anyone else's mentioned on here. Hey, I'll throw in a now deceased brother in law, too!

I have major issues with my mother in law, who is still alive. She has never acknowledged her part in what he did and has never admitted that it ever happened. Not just in regard to my daughters but to the others that my FIL molested through the years. And there were others. How many others will never be known.

never served a day. Died in January 1996.

My father in law molested all three of my daughters. My mother in law knew about it and did nothing to stop it. So, no, you're not the only one with in law issues.

I agree completely that it is the patient's responsibility to know their insurance. However, the primary care provider's insurance person (or department) should know what their responsibility is as well. I guess maybe the offices where I've worked and where I've been a patient (with one exception) were going above and beyond their call of duty. Even my specialist knew whether or not I had to have a referral! I wish the specialist my husband went to had done their job in getting the visits certified. THAT should not be our responsibility. No referral was needed but everything was suppo

No, it isn't the responsibility of the PCP staff to know the benefits of every plan but it is their responsibility to know if they are required to do a referral for that patient and what they have to do in order to get that taken care of. I would hate to think that I had to call my insurance company to find out if my PCP had to do a referral and THEN call the PCP and tell them what to do. They wouldn't be my PCP any longer than it took to change that. BTDT. Maybe I expect more of out medical office staffers than I should. Having worked in them for 17 years must have spoiled me.

We have Aetna now and our plan doesn't require a PCP or referrals to specialists. I it! The BC/BS we had earlier was like yours--it required a referral for some specialists. They termed OB/GYNs and dermatologists as primary care and therefore did not require a referral.

Best thing to do is check your policy. If a referral from the PCP is required and you don't do this correctly, it could cost you big bucks. Also, if you have to have the referral, make sure the doctor to whom the referral will be made is on your plan. Also, some PCPs will do a referral for an ongoing problem even if there hasn't been a recent visit but most will NOT. You might call your PCP and ask if a referral is required. They should know.

I'm sooooooooooooo happy!!!

Hmmm. Trees are farmed for paper. In that respect, they are a "crop" just like corn or beans. Big difference is they are growing for roughly 20 years and then are cut down to make paper. More baby trees are planted in their place and the cycle begins anew. They don't just simply go away with nothing let in their place but empty land. Well, at least not for very long. A year or two maybe but then the cycle begins. We have been going through Brewton, Alabama on our way to Pensacola for so long, we have actually seen trees plants and harvested and a new planting begun. It's really nea

My husband has been employed in the paper industry for almost 20 years. Naturally, I believe plastic bags should be banned. Not just because of our connection to the paper industry, though. Plastic does not go away. Paper does. Bags to take your purchases home should be a cost of doing business for the store.

Something similar happened to me about 14 years ago. Someone who owed me what I felt was a good bit of money (in excess of $1000) told me on Thursday afternoon they couldn't pay me what they owed me and then turned around on Friday and went to Biloxi for four days. When they got back from Biloxi, they said they still couldn't pay me what they owed me because they gambled and lost every penny they took with them. To this day, that peson STILL owes me around $1000. And it makes me

Same here. It stopped two viruses that I would have gotten because they appeared to have been from legitimate sites that I use.

sounds like what I had. Would not allow me to install antivirus programs. Interestingly enough, I HAD malwarebytes on my computer and this virus disabled it.

I know at least five other people who got a virus while ON Facebook. I was ON Facebook when I got one. One of the people I know has gotten the virus three times. I had to take my computer in to have the virus removed, it was so badly embedded. In my attempts to remove the virus, I actually made it worse. Almost everyone I knew who got the virus was NOT using antivirus software. One person I know was using it but got the virus anyway. It's a nasty one. I now have a laptop because of the virus. I also got my desktop repaired but it isn't the same. The computer shop did a grea

Paulding sales tax is 7%, Cobb is 6%. State is 4% no matter where you live, but Cobb doesn't have one of the local option taxes that Paulding does. Can't remember which one Cobb doesn't have but I think it is the one for road work. If memory serves me correctly, the road work that is going on in Cobb now (in my area in particular) was from the previous local option tax which was not extended. I buy most things in Paulding because I'd rather pay the extra penny per dollar in sales tax than deal with the traffic or the people in the Austell Road, Cumberland Mall or Town Center Mall areas

one does not preclude the other. He *could* have had a number of rounds AND been fishing.

It's not JUST Cobb but there aren't many counties that do this. That law was introduced by my cousin when he was in the state legislature many years ago. He was from Cobb County.

We were out for a ride on Friday afternoon and saw probably thousands of them. Largest flock of sandhills I think I had ever seen! Then on Saturday, we saw several smaller flocks, probably numbering between 150-200 of them combined. It was the third day this year we have seen them heading north.

I live in Cobb. I buy groceries in Cobb but almost everything else I purchase is in either Paulding or Douglas. My kitchen appliances were purchased in Paulding. Our last five cars were purchased in Douglas. Most of our home improvement items from remodeling a rental house were purchased in Douglas. Even our bank is in Paulding.

I got married at 23 and moved into the house my husband was renting at the time. He had a lot of friends (think late 1970s) and we always had people around. He had custody of his two girls so we had kids around all the time, too. Our furniture was early married--he had a few things but not many, and I had nothing but my bedroom furniture which didn't match. We had a second hand fridge, sofa and coffee table. No dining room furniture or kitchen table. We had been married about two months when we went and bought a dining room table and a kitchen table in the same day. We still have bot
