INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Peel back the backing at the top of the over-laminate sheet and line the top edge of the laminate up with the top edge of the vinyl paper. Use your fingers to press the laminate onto the vinyl paper so it sticks. You can find over-laminate online or at your local office supplies store. Press the laminate onto the vinyl paper as you go. Keep going until you’ve peeled off all the backing and the whole sheet of vinyl is laminated. To prevent air bubbles, use the edge of a ruler to press the laminate onto the vinyl paper. Use a ruler and a craft knife to make precise straight cuts. If your sticker designs are rounded, use scissors to cut them out, or give them a square background. Once all your stickers are cut out, discard any leftover paper scraps. The vinyl backing will be on the opposite side of the over-laminate, on the back of the sticker design. Grab a corner of the vinyl backing with two fingers and peel it back until it’s completely off the sticker. Place your sticker on a dry, flat surface.

SUMMARY: Apply an over-laminate sheet over your stickers. Peel back the rest of the over-laminate backing slowly. Cut out the laminated stickers from the sheet of vinyl. Peel off the backing on your stickers to use them.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Turn the zone valve back on and see how each sprinkler head sprays. If they’re not spraying how you’d like, you can adjust the change the total rotation of gear-drive heads from 0–360 degrees. Also adjust the spray pattern and distance with the adjusting features designed in your particular head. The way you adjust the sprinkler heads can vary from one manufacturer to another. Most have a small radius adjustment knob on the top of the sprinkler head. Take a close look at the bushings and other fittings to make sure none are leaking water. When you are satisfied there are no leaks, turn the valve off. If you do happen to find a leak, unscrew and reattach the bushings and pipes, taking care to screw them together more tightly this time. It’s important to check for leaks before you shovel the soil back in place over the water lines. If you don’t, you could end up needing to dig up the lines again in the future to find a leak. Only backfill the ditches once you’ve walked the ditches and confirmed that there are no leaks. Once you’re certain, use your shovel to scoop the dirt and organic material that you dug out earlier back into the ditches. If you had to remove any sod or other ground cover, place the sod back in place. Shovel up any roots or other organic matter that you unearth while installing the sprinkler pipes. Dispose of these materials in the trash or compost bin.
Summary: Observe the spray coverage and direction of each head. Walk the length of your ditches to check for water leaks. Backfill your ditches and pack the soil in firmly.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Perhaps your spouse doesn’t want to move because they don’t want to be steamrolled in the decision-making process. You can combat this by including them in all of the planning. Not only can involvement help them feel like they have a say in the situation, but it may also make them more excited about moving. Allow your spouse to look at homes with you, scout out neighborhoods, and choose design options. They may find that moving presents them with better choices when they are able to see what the home and area are like. If you want to move to a new city, state, or even country, plan a vacation there. Being immersed in the area may help your spouse to change their mind when they see what the new environment has to offer. Choose activities that will highlight the location and find things to do that your spouse likes. Planning your trip out ahead of time to include what your spouse will enjoy could make all of the difference in the world. If you are able to, rent an apartment in the new location for a few months. This allows your spouse to really get an idea of what it would be like to move there. You may find that they like the new area because of this, or you may even discover that after living there, you would rather not move at all. If you still can’t come to an agreement, at least try to come to a compromise. Suggest renting your house out for a year, and moving to your ideal spot until the lease is up. If your spouse still isn’t happy, make an offer to move back into your home. However, if your spouse is willing to try out a move for you, you must be good on your word and move back if they don’t love the new location. To make the agreement even more official, put together a contract of sorts. Include that you agree to live in the new home for a year and you will move back to the original home if you aren’t both happy with the new place. Having a document such as this may make your spouse feel more confident that you will, in fact, move if they don’t want to stay after a year.

SUMMARY:
Involve your spouse in the planning. Take a trial run. Work out a compromise.
