I posted something similar on the discussions side because our forum site was running slow at my posting showing up.??????? I just thought I had forgotten to push the submit message button. So I promise I am not having another senior moment. LOLOLOLO Susie

What a wonderful feeling to get to do something you've always wanted to. I was planning to do something similar --take a class in Tai Chi. Finally worked up the courage and got registered, only to get a call yesterday the classes had been canceled. Phooie. Can you walk on your toes yet?

Thanks for your comments! charlikin: the paint is Muralo Prairie Path. It is a mellow greenish/gray. It is the same color in both the before and after photos. The room gets a lot of light (two huge windows/western and southern exposure) and I've found the quality of light very different between summer (before photos taken then) and winter (after photos). The wall color, cabinet color, and soapstone all look different depending on the time of day/season! It makes it hard to photograph. I'm really happy with the wall color--it picks up the green tones in the soapstone. americancolleen: the refrigerator was here when I moved in, so I don't much about it. It is a GE Profile, and the manual lists the following model numbers: TCX18/TCC18/TDC18/TCD18/TCS18. It is 30" wide and about 28" long. Hope that helps!

Teresa, so sorry about this. I also understand because I lose/misplace more things than I like to admit to. Sometimes it's short-term but sometimes it takes me ages to find missing item. Often just stumble across it. Sometimes it's in a place where I've looked and I find it ifficult to figure how I could have missed it. Other things, like a cute animal panel for a baby quit along with the fabrics for sashes and border and backing that I bought years ago in case someone close had a baby. Well, a niece and nephew later and still can't find. aaagh!
