Q: Your preference for each model may depend on the set up of your bathroom, and your preferred aesthetic or design.  One-piece models are designed so the tank and the bowl are integrated into a compact unit, making them easy to clean and ideal for smaller bathrooms where you need to save space. However, these models can be more expensive than the standard two-piece model. Two-piece toilet models are the more traditional design of a separate bowl and tank. They are more affordable than one-piece models, and are cheaper to install. However, they take up more space and are more difficult to clean. Most toilet seats are available in two shapes: elongated and round. Elongated seats are more comfortable, as their shape adds room and comfort, especially for adult. Round seats are about 2 inches (5.1 cm) shorter, which may work better in cramped bathrooms or with smaller individuals and young children. Small children will be comfortable with the standard height of 14–15 inches (35.6–38.1 cm). The Comfort Height toilet models are 17 to 19 inches (43.2 to 48.3 cm) off the floor and 2 to 4 inches (5.1 to 10.2 cm) taller than regular-height toilets. Comfort Height toilets meet the standards of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), making them ideal for seniors and those with a disability. This is the distance between the outlet pipe for the toilet and the wall behind the toilet. Toilet models are available in various sizes to fit different rough-ins, so choosing the right size is crucial.  To determine the size of your toilet rough-in, measure from the wall behind the toilet to the bolt caps of your current toilet. Do not include baseboards in your measurements.  Most toilets are available in a 12-inch rough-in, which is the standard distance, but a 10- or 14-inch rough-in may be needed in some homes. For example, a toilet with an antimicrobial glaze finish will inhibit the growth of bacteria inside the bowl. And if you can't stand the clanking sound when a standard toilet seat is put down, a self-closing toilet seat may be a good option. Like anything, there is always the option of a fully custom toilet or a bidet. Keep in mind that a design choice like a unique toilet colors can make a statement in your bathroom, but they will cost more than a standard white model.
A: Compare one-piece and two-piece models. Evaluate the shape of the toilet seat. Choose a toilet height that's easy to use. Always buy a toilet with the correct rough-in. Consider any other preferences before you purchase.

Q: Do the last stitch as you normally would while working in the round. Stop just short of chaining extra to start a new row. Cut the yarn about 4-6" from where it comes off the piece you are working on. This extra thread is called the tail. Now pull on the loop that you have started until all of the thread comes through and you have a loose tail. Get a yarn needle and thread the tail through the needle. Now, you'll have the two sides of your row on the circle, separated by a V shaped gap. Your needle and thread should be on one side: you're going to bring them over to the other. Put the needle just under the first stitch, just past the beginning chain, and pull the tail under both loops. Pull the tail to bring the two sides of the V together and close the gap. Go back to the last stitch that you made, on the first side. Put the thread through the back loop of that first stitch, from the facing side, and then pull it through. It should now look like a normal chain in the outside row, completely invisible. Weave the tail down towards the center a bit and then back up. Weaving in two directions will be necessary to keep the tail from coming loose.
A: Do your last stitch in a round. Cut off the excess. Pull the thread through and out. Thread a yarn needle with the tail. Thread through the other side of the gap. Pull the gap closed. Finish the fake chain. Weave in the remainder of the tail.

Q: Take a few minutes every day to check in with yourself. At the end of each day, you can ask yourself questions. Try thinking, "How did my actions today relate to Value #1? How about Value #2?" This will only take a few minutes of your time, but can be very helpful in keeping your values front and center. Ask all of the members of your family to adopt this habit. Once you have a mission statement that is easily accessible, it will be easy for everyone to reference the list of values on a daily basis. You can do this by making sure to spend quality time together. The more time that you spend together, the more shared experiences you will have as a family. Spending quality time with each other will allow you to get to know one another better. This will help you figure out what matters most to each of you individually, and as a family.  Schedule time for the whole family to spend together. It can be as simple as eating dinner together, or something like devoting a whole Saturday to family activities. Let each member of the family have input in your activities. For example, if your daughter loves to exercise, try taking a hike together. Your values are an important part of your decision-making process. Keep your family values in mind before making any big life choices. For example, if a family value is education, make sure to live in an area with good schools. Make life choices part of a family discussion. Before major changes are made, call a family meeting to discuss how the potential change aligns with your family values. The best way to integrate your family values into your daily life is to make sure that your actions reflect those values. Make sure that the choices you make are in line with what you consider to be your most important family values.  If your number one family value is honesty, make sure that you are candid and truthful. Apply this value to your work life and your social life. Modeling is the best way to help children learn values. For example, if you value respect, show your kids how to be respectful by always addressing other people with consideration. Values are important because they can help determine your choices and your actions. When you are thinking about family values, it is useful to also consider your family goals. Your values will likely play a big role in how you go about accomplishing those goals.  Is learning one of your family values? Think about translating that into a concrete goal. Think about the steps you can take to focus on learning as a family. For example, you could all learn a new language together or take a cooking class. This will integrate your family values and goals. If financial responsibility is a family value, you could use that guiding principle to make sure that each family member understands the importance of sticking to a budget. That way, you can accomplish family goals of saving for retirement, college, etc.
A:
Think of your values daily. Stay connected as a family. Make positive life choices. Model your values. Use family values to work on family goals.
