Problem: Article: Spills are going to happen, no matter how careful you are. The key is to get them up quickly. Use a cloth to absorb the spill, then wipe up any residue with a damp cloth. Use another towel to dry it. If you have a stubborn or dried spill, you may need a little more than a damp cloth. You can apply a window cleaner that doesn't have ammonia in it. Once the spill is up, make sure to wipe the area with a damp cloth to remove residue. You can also try a mild, pH-neutral cleaner for spills. While some people recommend diluted vinegar for cleaning your floors, it's best to skip acidic cleaners. They can affect the coating, which means your floors won't look as shiny and nice.
Summary: Clean up spills immediately. Try an ammonia-free glass cleaner. Skip vinegar and ammonia.

Problem: Article: Different people have different ideas of what is cute. However, most people seem to associate cute with youthfulness and innocence. Depending on the colors, patterns, and even embellishments, the same shirt can look cute, chic, or even sexy. Jeans are a must in any closet, as they tend to go well with just about anything. However, there are other pieces you add to your cute outfit. Here are some basic ideas to get you started: Skirts and dresses that are flirty and girly. They are not too short and not too tight. Most are going to be mid-thigh of longer. Blouses and shirts are modest. Great options are loose, flowing blouses, button-up shirts, scoop-neck fitted tees, and even printed or graphic tees. Boot-cut and skinny jeans aren't the only pants that can be cute. Shorts (especially with lace insets), baggy boyfriend jeans, rompers, jumpsuits, and culottes can also be quite cute. Some people associate certain colors with "cute" more so than other colors. Light colors, such as pinks, light blues, and whites are youthful and feminine. Clothes with these colors are often quite cute. You can branch out to other colors too. For example: Neutrals, such as browns and creams are great for the fall and winter months. A flash of a bright color, such as red, can also be cute, but try to stay away from too many dark colors. These can look more mature, sexy, or chic than cute. Almost any pattern works here, but you might want to focus on delicate patterns and prints, such as florals, roses, and other flowers. These can soften up pieces that might be otherwise considered sexy or chic. Patterns are also great for adding texture and variety to your outfit. Polka dots, Swiss dots, and micro dots are all really cute, too. Instead of just focusing on denim pants, jersey fitted tees, and cotton blouses, try adding some other textures to your wardrobe as well. They can help the final outfit look all the more cute. Here are some ideas: Knits, especially chunky knits, can help make a winter outfit look cozier. Think cardigans and over-sized sweaters. Flannel will usually come in the form of a plaid, button-up shirt. They are great for layering. Leather and fake leather can add a touch of smoothness to any outfit. Pieces with chiffon or lace overlays are a great way of adding texture to any outfit. Much like floral patterns, some white eyelet lace or ribbon can also soften any clothing piece and make it look cuter. Jewelry can also make any plain outfit into an outfit that pops. Modesty is often associated with cuteness, so you might want to consider softer shapes rather than pointier ones. Here are some examples: Consider a softer neckline, such as a scoop or sweetheart instead of a sharp point. Try a flirty, loose-fitting skirt that goes past your mid-thigh over a short or tight fitting skirt for something a little more sexy or chic. Choose loose fitting blouses, oversized sweaters, and full-circle skirts. Opt for a turtleneck in winter for something casual, but sophisticated. Experiment with different textures as well, such as a lightweight ribbed knit or cotton during warmer weather or a heavier knit during cold weather. Full-circle skirts from the 1950s can look not only cute, but also flirty and chic. They are also super fun to twirl in. Hippie shirts and boho blouses from the 1970s can also be very cute when paired with the right accessories. You can find lots of cute vintage pieces in vintage clothing shops, consignment shops, online, or even secondhand clothing shops. Look for colorful vintage t-shirts with slogans or band names. You can pair these with jeans, a skirt and some boots or sneakers, depending on your mood or style. Most people might associate "cute" with "feminine," so you might want to consider this when picking out your shoes. This does not mean that you have to wear pink heels, however. There are many other shoes that can also count as "cute." Here are some ideas to get you started: Ballet flats and moccasins are great because they can work with almost any outfit. Shoes with embellishments, such as lace and bows, are always a great start. Wedges are perfect for the summertime, especially if they come with long, ballerina-style laces. Heeled, chunky boots are a mixture of the feminine and the outdoors. They can be quite cute, especially if paired with skinny jeans. If you like to wear canvas sneakers or clunky boots, consider getting a pair that has a colorful lining on the inside. You can also switch out the shoelaces for something more colorful or patterned.
Summary: Know that "cute" has many definitions. Start with the basic pieces. Consider the colors. Keep patterns in mind. Consider other textures too. Consider some girlish embellishments. Keep the cut and shape in mind. Go vintage. Keep your shoes in mind.

Problem: Article: Your adjuster will have more knowledge about your claim than any agent or representative with your insurance company. Therefore, it may be worthwhile to communicate directly with him on any issues you're confused or unsatisfied with. Decisions you may be confused or unsatisfied with include those based on your application of coverage, the timing of when you filed your proof of loss, or the damage estimate. Contact your adjuster on these and similar matters before speaking to an insurance agent. If you are still not clear on why a decision was reached, or if you do not agree with that decision, you can then move on to the adjuster's supervisor. Ask your adjuster for his supervisor's contact information, and reach out to the supervisor before notifying an insurance agent. If your adjuster's supervisor is unable to help you, or if you still do not agree with his decision, you may then move on to your insurance company. The adjuster himself, as well as his supervisor, should be appealed to first, as they will have greater knowledge about your damage and the claim you filed. Contact your insurance agent through your usual means of communication, or look up the contact information for a representative at your insurance company. If you're still unclear on what's happening with your claim, or if you still have outstanding issues that are not being handled properly, you may contact the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). They can help clarify the process and may be able to help you mount an appeal if you did not have any luck with your adjuster, his supervisor, or your insurance company.
Summary:
Talk to your adjuster first. Move on to the adjuster's supervisor. Contact your insurance company. Reach out to FEMA.
