If the issue is the vanity contacting moisture on the floor, you might want to consider a "floating" vanity, mounted to the wall (and attached to side walls if available) but without touching the floor beneath. Ours is 12" off the floor, which leaves room under it for a bathroom scale, waste basket, step stool or whatever. Some people even install LED lighting below to act as a soft nightlight. I was surprised how much bigger it made the bathroom seem. Of course, your flooring has to extend under the vanity, which may involve extra expense if your current vanity sits on the subfloor.

If you don't love it, keep looking. I can't judge the color of the cabinets with the stone because they aren't in the same picture. You really need to see a sample of the stone with the door samples in your kitchen to see how they play off each other. My monitor is showing your cream cabinet as yellow with green undertones. You should love your choice, not be freaked out by it. Keep looking. :)

Hi Everyone, I've been unable to decide what to do, so ignored it all and did outside work/ gardening yesterday instead:) I stopped in to see our flooring guy on Friday. As it turns out, he was there chatting to a Sales Rep from a Flooring Mfr. ( the company we used do both on site and pre- finished) The Sales rep was showing their newer factory oil finished matte flooring. Then, another Rep showed up...what are the chances I decide to stop in then! They both indicated matte is the new trend and very easy for maintenance. They all love the look of a more natural/ rustic looking floor. So....the 3 of them strongly encouraged me to live with the floors for awhile. I've not yet moved furniture back in and they said it will make a difference. They're more than likely right on this as I'm looking at 2 rooms that had glossy floors before and now 2 empty rooms with nothing but matte/ dull floors staring back at me:) I have to admit, I'm coming around to them... The flooring co would gladly put a satin finish on for me, more $ for them. However, he really wants me to end up loving these floors. My DH sure does. I'm still a little on the fence so anything could happen over the next few days decision-wise. I do have DH's word that if I live with them and have a change of heart be it 6 mths or a year, he hauls everything out and we have them buffed and top coated in a satin finish. I will remind him of this:) DH left on a business trip to Atlanta today, and I've said by the time he arrives home Tues. pm, decision will be done! Thanks again for all of your feedback....enjoy your day:)

maire, I still keep my tree at ancestry but I also have the software. I use Macavo for the search. Whatever comes up there I google using the title Macavo used. That works almost every time. Most of their stuff is out of copyright books and old newspapers. Google has a bazillion old history books and newspapers. Sometimes you have to get real creative with search terms. familysearch sometimes is a gold mine. Sometimes not. I subscribed to findmypast when they ran a $49 special a month or so ago. It hasn't proven as helpful as I had hoped. I read a lot of blogs and those people seem to know where to look for stuff so I follow any link they talk about. Individual states sometimes have good historical societies and/or the state itself sometimes has good genealogy information. Ethnic sites might have what you need. My ggrandmother who died in the hospital at Castle Garden was in the German Genealogy Group web site http://www.germangenealogygroup.com/records-search/deaths.php It takes a lot of practice, trial and error and just plain luck to find stuff, especially for free. I did send for the death certificate and paid for that but often the information is indexed on the web site. The death of my great grandmother in S.D. was indexed on their web site. I did send for it. Sometimes it's as little a a couple bucks and sometimes $25 for a mailed copy. If the index is good enough proof, don't buy the copy. But I do like to read the information on the original. Even originals have mistakes though. One place I don't think gets enough scrutiny is the original page of the census. Don't just read the index. Open the original page and read everything all the way across the page. Compare it with all the census you can find for that person. Be aware that the people in the census might have told the census taker anything. Some didn't think the government needed to know anything and answered accordingly. And sometimes the neighbors or whoever was at home answered the questions and might not have known where the people had been born so keep that in mind. I've found people I wasn't even looking for by reading the page before and the page after, too. Some historical societies and GENweb states have a limited amount of census on their site. the ancestry message boards and any other message board might connect you with someone who can help. I have the same problem as you. Either there isn't anyone else out there looking for our ancestors or they aren't looking the same places I'm looking. Finding them is a bit like pulling hen's teeth. In the long run, I've found better "cousins" by looking at the trees that my documents have been linked to. At least that way I know they are in my family. Or MIGHT be in my family. I found one a couple of days ago that uses all my ancestors for their person but that person never was in that family. They've assigned her to the wrong family. I don't know how much work they did, apparently not enough or they would have discovered there was no link. But otherwise, I have connected with cousins by following my own documents to other trees.
