Iv'e been reading up on exhaust fumes coming into peoples homes, and all over the nation people have this problem. It's said that the issue could be in the pipelines, and if people have **** pipes the sewage gases come into their homes.

And the gases get a stronger oder when the cities work on the pipelines. I get bad migranes and nauseated from these gaseous oders. Maybe a plumber can fix the issue?

There is some kind of problem where I live also going on 4 years now and getting worse, a strong chemical oder in the whole place with exhaust fumes coming in. Maybe a heating issue or **** pipe issue I suspect. who knows?


Do you have a sump pit?  Does it smell like chemicals or does it smell like poo?  Do you have natural gas?

Joanna, there are things in this world that are bound by nature that a man just can not do that a woman does 100X superior. One of those things is cook- IMHO.

That's why I like to eat at Arby's.  The back of their shirts say things like  "You're hungry, and I can cook" or "How about a sandwich", so I reward them with my patronage. The subtle training of those women employee's into the patriarchal hierarchy is breathtaking to behold. I wonder if they have even realized it yet.  I'm seriously surprised this isn't a thing where the Feminist movement hasn't made an outcry about making female workers wear such disparaging 'gender role' garb.


However, I did teach myself how to crochet along with being able to sew. So if you need a scarf, I can work one up for you. I've been working on one all winter in my free time. It's about half done..... Not something I actually like to do, as you can probably tell.



I know this feeling, Der.   The place sounds beautiful btw.  Would of loved to seen the old wallpaper.  Does it happen to have the Turquoise tile around the fireplace? Seen a few house in town that I've worked on that had this- stunning.




There are things in this world that you can't put a price tag on.  But your "title" of everything you do will echo throughout eternity, touching people's lives in ways you will never fathom.  Thank You.
Well since all employees wear the shirt I see no issue, and cooking involves more than just slapping some meat and mayo on a piece of bread but I understand the desire for someone else to do it for you, no scarf as I detest anything around my neck other than the 2 gold necklaces that I wear but I do have a weird sock obsession
Be the change you want to see in the world

I'm not sure.  There is a strong chemical odor and exhaust fumes odor (like a car exhaust), I notice when the heat is turned down its mild. But still get these odors during the warmer months also. No, does not smell of poo. Yes, have natural gas, did have oil, converted around 4 years ago. Thanks for posting about this issue.

That is what landord's say when they don't want to pay for needed upkeep... like black mold. My suggestion is to move... though it may be difficult... moving can be quite fun and liberating. You deserve better. At least speak to the Heath Department. Or complain to the Health Department. You life and heath may depend upon it. What you have described is not normal and certainly not healthy, but hazardous. Blessings be upon you Jackie and your loved ones.

You should call the gas company.  They will come out and pressure test your lines to see if you have a leak.

And if they find a problem, they will shut off your gas.
Have a back up plan in case they do!
