Bold of you to think I have

Carpet shouldn't be a problem with that setup. It stretches over imperfections well.

Another option is vinyl planks. They might charge more for the extra effort, but a smart contractor should know how to handle putting planks over the ramp. I've done a similar job when I was 19. I cut the plants flat to the edge of the ramp, then cut a slight angle for the ones over the ramp. Just had to cut the moulding a bit higher but it fit fine. If your husband is a confident DIYer he might be able to figure it out himself. Shouldn't need much more than a slight angle saw for the cuts.

If the drops are only 3/4" this should be no problem. If you use 36" for the slope transition you shouldn't notice it much if at all (1/48 slope). You can make it even more subtle by splitting the difference at the transition point, but that might create an uneven hallway.

You can round out the ramp to allow for covering it with vinyl but unless it has a visible outline you'll find it more comfortable if it's more square. Plus it's easier to cut that way. You'll want to have a compound side cut at a 45 angle from the end of the ramp to the adjacent wall. This should give you the simplest and most comfortable transition, and with a bit of extra work you can lay the vinyl right over it.

Obviously the ideal solution is to rip up the hallway floor but without being on site it's hard to brainstorm elegant solutions.

I'm guessing you just want to prevent drips. Interlocking sheets of corrugated plastic set at a slight angle just beneath the deck should provide adequate weather diverting.

I'd just take a sharpie and mark the new positions.

I used to be in the military, and that was pretty much the schedule. I usually went to bed at 10pm but I naturally sleep for 6 hours so I could do that. Most guys I knew were in bed by 8 or 9 on work days.

For the most part, you do get used to it. Should take about a week. Maintain your sleep schedule even on days off. If you must sleep in, try to limit it to an hour past your usual time. This will minimize grogginess on your work days.

Don't worry about getting stuff done. The sun will be up, so you'll be awake enough to do something. You won't be a work horse, but you'll accomplish at least one task.

If you're not a morning person, you can always sleep right when you get off work, and then just be awake all night. It sounds weird but I did it for six months when I was overseas. again, you get used to it.

If you have enough time on your midday break, I recommend a 20 minute nap then. even if you don't sleep your brain will appreciate the rest. If you don't have enough time for that, then a nap after work should do the trick, yes.

As for the Doctor visits, most doctors have appointments available after 3pm if you can book enough in advance. Otherwise, ask your boss before you book the appointment if you can leave early for doctor visits, and be honest with him about how frequent it may be. Most managers are willing to work something out.

​

Good luck.

Big tech. It's flashy and cheap to produce

I don't worship selfies either but I like taking photos of nature. A fast and hi def camera is essential. As is manual focus. I struggle to get clear photos of bugs since they took away manual focus.

I want physical buttons back I'm so sick of waiting for buttons to load or having them do nothing because my "smart" phone is being stupid.

If you bring up an issue you have with them and they get offended

Just 24 hours? Yeah almost nothing would change for the average person. Depending on the time of year some people might need some extra blankets but that's about it.

Power stations would have a nightmare when things came back online though. Look up a grid black start if you're ever curious.
