  • Self-storage. Try not to start rental during the summer/spring, prices are way higher than winters. If you’re storing short term with items that are easily bought new, I would suggest just getting rid of them and buying new. I see a ton of people who store thinking they’ll be out in 3 months and end up staying a year and spending way more than the items were ever worth. This is especially true for home renovations, those take up at least 50% more time than you think they will. If you smell something funky throughout a large part of the floor, don’t store on that floor. It’s most likely caused by mouse issues. Try to store in an elevator access unit instead of ground level. They’re usually more secure, tend to not have mouse issues, and end up cleaner because they’re lower traffic.




  • The Inheritance Cycle by Christopher Paolini! I’ve read it too many times. It’s a really good hero’s journey and the characters are all really interesting. Plus it’s focused on dragons and magic and elves and dwarves, lots of cool creativity that goes on in the world. And I just really enjoy Paolini’s world-building. He’s very good at it and it stays consistent. There are two wars that I remember, one is a small-scale thing that sets a lot of events in motion, and the other is the big climax at the end of the series. It’s my favourite series next to The Dark Tower. I’d highly recommend it!
