Who in ALX has recs for someone to scope a French drain / maybe look at the foundation? We have a water issue but the sump pump is working fine. Related: considering ditching the carpet, leveling the cement floor, and doing carpet tiles to save future headaches. Will also take recs on that!

Okay, for those of us without air purifiers, what are we doing to try to keep the air inside as safe as possible during this smoke situation? I DO have: regular HVAC (replaced the filter a week ago), a portable / window AC for upstairs, a few floor fans and ceiling fans.

The scene: New neighbors actively moving in. They wave hello from the front porch as a middle aged couple walks by. My husband, a normal: "Welcome to the neighborhood!" Me: "HAS ANYONE TOLD YOU ABOUT THE LOCAL TURKEY?"

It's 94 degrees out and I have zero make-at-home iced coffee skills, except simply putting espresso and milk over ice. HELP. How are people making cold caffeinated treats these days?
