when you just keep looking at a piece of art....
Gah - that chairish site drives me nuts with the updates. :) I have had my eye on something for awhile. and now i have the perfect spot for it, and the price is right, but the shipping is now more than the art! :)
Hmm now I am mad - I think they keep raising the price of the shipping and lowering the price of the piece. :(
I know it is not splashy, just a place I would want to sit and be awhile....

Comments (2)This was so much information! Thank you! I want to pull out what I found to be the most interesting and post it on it's own. "Just as the body was formed and operates on a priority basis, so it heals on a priority basis. This means that the most important parts of the body get the healing attention before the less vital tissues. We can't force the body to place its healing priority on weight loss when in fact the liver is about to die, for example. The liver is more important to your body than the extra pounds. So all the energies of the body go to heal the liver and weight loss will stop. The body will not compromise what health and vitality it does have in one part of the body to bring about healing in another. In other words, the body will not "rob Peter to pay Paul." So you may be eating nutritionally and exercising and you start out losing some weight. But then all of a sudden, you become stuck at a certain weight -- the needle on the scale won't budge anymore. The body is rejoicing on the inside and saying things like, "You know, we have all this extra energy now because Mr. Doughnut here has decided to start eating right and exercising -- let's take some of our new available energy and start the healing process on his congested liver!" So the body will take all the available energy and channel it into the liver. As a result the weight loss stops. The body will NOT take away any energy needed for daily activities and maintenance. It will only take what is left over to start the healing process. It's my belief that the body does not completely heal one part before moving on to the next item on its priority list. Rather, it heals a part to the degree that it is no longer a priority. At that point the healing attention is shifted to the part of the body that is now in most need of repair. In the above example, once the liver has been cleansed somewhat, the body will refocus its attention on other areas... perhaps back to weight loss. During my weight loss period, I would hit plateaus where it seemed like I'd never lose another pound. I lost 10 pounds and then nothing for 3 weeks. During that time I woke up one morning and my arthritis was gone and my blood sugar had stabilized somewhat. If you keep on your diet and exercise program, you will eventually lose all the weight you want. A healthy body is not overweight. Remember, "Always strive for health and the weight loss will happen!"...See MoreDents When You Just Look At It! - Somerset Red Oak Flooring
Comments (9)My experience is with engineereds. I agree that they are not the same as good old fashioned solid hardwoods I grew up with and see around with their beautiful patinas. They delaminate with a spill sometimes very easily if you're not there to get it up immediately. Little pieces of wood chip out of the flooring with pet claws. The newer ones have the aluminum oxide that scratches unnaturally white. I grew up with a menagerie of pets and kids and this type of thing did not happen with that floor. It was wax and did get some stains but it was good solid wood. Very impressive kitchen store who really knows his stuff says they only do solids and they hold up great. He wouldn't bother with the engineered stuff, pfft. The installs at their store did not look like the furniture type prefinisheds. They were still beautiful with natural patina from years of store abuse. I'm trying another engineered this time around, out of necessity, but would much rather have a traditional 3/4 solid finished on site. At least they can be restored down the road. Who wants to replace their floors every 15 years. That's not why you get hardwoods. If this one doesn't hold up either, it will be painted if possible....See Morewhat do you keep on your DR table when not in use?
Comments (59)jaybirdtx, we had a cat who liked the table too, so he could look out the window. Here is his on top of the table on Easter morning before I had a chance to straighten out the table cloth. What a rascal!...See MoreRemember when I was looking for art for this spot?
Comments (37)pudgeder, he had to search for a place to print this particular size, since it was an odd size (20" x 48"). I think the name of the site he used is Canvas Pop. One thing I thought was odd was that you had to choose a frame (white or black) -- no option for unframed print -- and we were concerned we wouldn't like the frame, but it's a very basic black wood frame that looks just fine....See More

In previous house:
and I feel like it would be a lovely room to retire in with pictures like that in it too.

6 years agoI had one of those moments, too. Mine was a LOT cheaper but still, for something I wasn't looking for, and it didn't really fit my decor, but... I can't remember if I paid $8 for it. This is a crummy picture. It's night time here and it appears I need new batteries again but it was just to show you I had the same moment you are having. I think mine is paper and it has a water stain. I've googled the artist which I've forgotten what I found.
