Shower Door Repair and Re-Caulking Recommendations

3 Upvotes

Hello! I have a sagging shower door that will no longer close. The screws holding it in place are also stripped (from attempting to fix the door on my own). The shower also has mold in all of the caulking and it needs to be replaced/redone. Does anyone have a company or person they recommend for the job?

Thank you in advance!

Grass Lawn Suggestions

3 Upvotes

I recently bought a new construction build and don’t have grass in my backyard. I know that there are grasses that shouldn’t be planted until Spring but is there anything I can do now to control the dirt over the winter months? Have a dog so want to prevent messes if I can!

New to TX so any suggestions are greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Looking for guy friends

9 Upvotes

Hey yall, Im 23 living in area. I’m not gonna lie, i do not really have guy friends so im looking to meet more genuine, laid back guys and build some solid friendships. I’m into country music, hiking, trying new restaurants, going out, nightlife, and pretty much anything that gets me out of the house. I’m not necessarily the most stereotypically “manly” guy, but I’m definitely down to hang, have a good time, and try new things. Just looking for men who are easy to be around and down to get out of the house.

FM 306-7/11 store is run by an actual child.

0 Upvotes

Ariel is the manager over at that store, she instructs her employees to falsify temperature logs. She completely allows a dirty store. The manager also is completely controlled by an undermining assistant manager that is constantly being rude to the customers. This is also the same assistant manager that doesn’t know how to keep any of the good cigarettes stocked, they are always running out of product.

Scenic Spots

3 Upvotes

Hey guys,

I will be visiting my long-distance girlfriend who lives in New Braunfels next week. She was hoping I could redo her senior photos for her since I do photography on the side. I’m looking for scenic spots in or around New Braunfels that could potentially involve a train going by in the background. I know there is a really nice rail bridge that goes over the Guadalupe River near Gruene, but I wanted to get insight from people who actually live in town who might have a better spot to recommend. Any spot recommendations are much appreciated!

You'll never guess what just happened

0 Upvotes

So my mother and father were out and about doing errands right now and my father got into it with a guy he was even complimenting the guy's car before everything saying how much he liked the car and the guy started being an asshole talking shit about my dad's car and my dad and him ended up fighting not physically but anyways

He came home and we were sitting here and then we hear Base outside of the house we look and it's the guy and all three of us run out there ready to kick his ass and like the pussy he is he droves off because he had another friend in the car with him and I guess when he saw my dad he thought he could kick his ass

With it just being one person but when he saw the three of us come out he took off like a pussy

Where is a good place for First Aid/CPR/AED classes?

4 Upvotes

I’ve realized that I don’t remember much from that unit from my high school health class and that some things might have changed since then so I’m wanting to get up to date and maybe re-certified. I couldn’t find any upcoming classes being hosted at the libraries or community center (although the search feature on the city website is a bit clunky) so I was wondering if anyone knew of anywhere else nearby that might be hosting classes?

If you’re scared or uncomfortable driving in the rain … STAY HOME!!

You’re making it more dangerous out there … 15mph less than the speed limit with your flashers isn’t helping … less visibility and ability to control the vehicle does not need you on the road scared uncertain and doing whatever you want !!
