From time to time we find ourselves looking at interior design magazines and webpages, and today we were looking at an interior design webpage that had a link to a partner webpage that was talking about decorating with hand-me-down furniture. Basically it was an article about how a handful of designers love some old furnishings that bring back special memories of people that gave them the item. The article was in slide-show form and had several pictures of the items in question. One of the items was of an irregularly shaped coffee table that my wife liked so much that she asked me if I could try to create a similar table for our family room. I suggested that she put that on her “honey do” list and I’d see what I could do.

Oh my, there are a lot of places I want to go!  I’d better start gathering information about all of those places!

Also, if I want to change the oil or work on something and not clutter up the garage for 2 or 3 weeks, I can put it in there and work on it when I get a chance.  So, I want to get a carport.  Carports come in many sizes and shapes and I want to make sure that I get one that is big enough to put everything underneath there that I want to.

I’ve measured 2 or 3 of them and just when I thought it was the right size I found out that by putting 2 or 3 of the items in there that I want, all of a sudden there’s no room for anything else!  So I want to make sure that I get the right size the first time and not have to worry about it!  I also want to install some lights in it.
