Interesting enough, computer was fine until I tried to open Photoshop C3. Like last week, it gets stuck on MMXCore Routines when opening. Tried uninstalling it last week, but apparently it didn't happen. Thought maybe it would open since computer was running okay now. Computer crashed. Here are the crash reports for today: On Mon 3/19/2012 4:53:24 PM GMT your computer crashed crash dump file: C:\Windows\Minidump\Mini031912-01.dmp This was probably caused by the following module: win32k.sys (win32k+0x9D10D) Bugcheck code: 0x7A (0xFFFFFFFFC0600058, 0xFFFFFFFFC0000056, 0xFFFFFFFFB5D20884, 0xFFFFFFFFC000B000) Error: KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE_ERROR file path: C:\Windows\system32\win32k.sys product: Microsoft� Windows� Operating System company: Microsoft Corporation description: Multi-User Win32 Driver Bug check description: This bug check indicates that the requested page of kernel data from the paging file could not be read into memory.

Thank you for getting back to us on this. I'm relieved! When we built we didn't downsize, we 'upsized' slightly, if that's a word. That's because our 'starter home' of 1971 nearly became our 'retirement home'. It was a nice 2000 sq ft 1950's brick ranch on a quarter acre in a desireable suburb 15 miles north of Chicago. However the area had become more and more congested with road (and air) traffic. To our west, Glenview Naval Air Station had been decommissioned and was turning into (IMO) a nightmare of dense development. To our south, Evanston was ripping out single family homes and throwing up skyscrapers. Roads were gridlocked. Like you, we wanted to 'escape'! We moved 15 miles farther north and closer to the lake; bought another 1950's ranch on a beautiful street near town; tore it down and built a 2900 sq ft single-story-living home. We came close to remodeling but I am SO glad we did the teardown. Now we are *where* we want to be and in a tight, new house we can enjoy for some time to come. After visiting friends in our old town I breathe a sigh of relief as soon as we exit the expressway and head east to peace and quiet. I know you will enjoy the new surroundings, perhaps as much as the new house! Do check back and let us know progress. Are you considering moving before building? It sounds as though just exiting the problem town would be a relief.

Oh, I hear you!!! And I'm feeling your pain in three different rooms. Looking for paint colors for my LR, kitchen, & bathroom... light beige/tans for the LR & bathroom (different shades though), and a light green for the kitchen. Sea Urchin was one of the shades I tried for the bathroom - yes, too pink. I think I'm going with the Affinity shade called "Kangaroo" (just the name I would want for my peaceful spa-retreat bathroom! LOL!). My bathroom tile is more of an ivory with tan veining, and this is neither too pink nor too yellow (nor too green nor too grey, etc.). Not sure if I'm doing full-strength or not - I'm getting into sampling these things at 50% (and I'm surprised at how little difference that makes in the darkness of the shade). Tonight I'm going to paint swatches of Shaker Beige vs. Lenox Tan (at 50%) in my LR. I already have three different shades of green plus Stone House in my kitchen. I think all of this is more a matter of courage than anything else. Good luck to you!

That's a real bummer, but everytime something like that happens to me, I end up finding a replacement that I like even better! Do you have a HomeGoods in your area? Was roaming their store the other day, and they had just put out some of the most beautiful stools, several varieties, cherry dark/light some with cushions, some without, and varying heights but they were excellent quality, fairly priced and really pretty. Same class and style as they ones you got from JCP. I was going to let you know the other day, but you had already ordered. If you do have a store in your area, maybe they have just received a shipment too and/or are expecting one.
