You can buy that sort of table at my all time favourite store IKEA. You are doing well with your books WM would love me to cull but I just can't.

My sister (not the one I just blogged about, the other one) can have her new home all set with pictures on the wall and flowers on the table in a matter of days.

Whatever books we bring into the house we have to carry with us all the time.<BR/><BR/>bg, believe it or not we took the legs off our couches already! :) But that was because our cat kept batting his toy mouse under them, then digging and scratching and digging away trying to get 'em back out. Drove us crazy! Now he's climbing boxes to the tippy top and pretending he's a majestic lion on the edge of a cliff. He LOVES moving.<BR/><BR/>Lorna, thanks for that tip about the table. We have a kitchen table that has two flaps that when folded down we're hoping will work. But the table you describe sounds like it would be even better. I'll keep my eye out for something like that around here!<BR/><BR/>Jan, D suggested "gibbous this day our daily bread . . ." That's pretty bad, huh?JWDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04309883026511770230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18958667.post-1147780580721358102006-05-16T04:56:00.000-07:002006-05-16T04:56:00.000-07:00This is so cool.

This table really really helped make use of the space. When she's alone she often eats breakfast /snacks from the tray on her walker but that's a different matter I think.<BR/><BR/>it all looks lovely and I hope you'll be very happy<BR/><BR/>as for the books ... good you've ditched some (though I hate doing it) <BR/><BR/>and I laughed too at your not breaking enough non-essential kitchen stuff. That really is a problem isn't it.

Does it have a feature that lets you see if a couch fits through the door - or if you have to saw off a leg?BGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12872634190504292191noreply@blogger.com
