Graciegirl, I PM'd you a few days ago. I don't know if you picked up your messages yet but it really is a very stunning shower. However, when the picture of your shower came up and nearly filled my computer screen, it caught me off guard. I think you're bathroom looks quite elegant, definitely not raunchy! And to stay on thread, that chandelier looks great too.

GG,

Your chandelier is beautiful. My goodness, I think that is one high ceiling. That looks absolutely wonderful.

I went to Lowe's last night and looked up a lot. But then we had to go to IKEA, but not for lighting. Mr. Boomer needed some shelves.

IKEA makes me insane for some reason. I can never find my way around the place.

I do like the music they play there though. It always makes me want to dance. And I am a terrible dancer. And when I begin to dance through the meandering aisles at IKEA, it makes Mr. Boomer hurry up to get me out of there.

Actually, the shelves were OK.

But when Mr. Boomer was looking at a desk chair or some such thing, he said to me, "This sure looked a lot better in the catalogue."

"So did I, Darlin'," I said to him. "So did I."

And I danced on through those awful, aimless aisles.

I did not have to stay long at IKEA last night.

I just looked at the link. Not only is the chandelier beautiful, but I really like the table, too.

OH Barb! You are absolutely brilliant.

Just another reason why I like you so much.

How'd you do that?

Thanks Boom for liking our table.

Here is a little Boomer story. When we shop for anything I am first a price tag looker, being from German Village of Columbus, Ohio. My husband looks for quality, being from Bexley, in Columbus,Ohio. You Boom, being a Buckeye will get this right away.

I like to have quality but I like a bargain. Well we both liked this table and chairs and you could choose to get it with leather seats or cloth. I wanted the cloth because it was a lot less expensive. Sweetie won out.

It was delivered and a week later we had all the family over for Thanksgiving. The very first thing that happened was that my sister dropped a whole plate of turkey, mashed potatoes, GRAVY face down on the seat.The leather cleaned up perfectly. My sister not so much. Sweetie brings it up whenever we shop for anything anymore.

We have made a lot of memories around it in the dozen years or so we have had it.

Barb is gonna be our Techno consultant. How'd she do that???

GG,

Those burbs? I get it.

I also get German heritage. I got it.

Furniture is a weakness of mine. I struggle with my decisions. Went to that store over in Kenwood the other day. The one that is close to my gardening man's place. You know the store I mean. I bet. The one with that infernal Stickley stuff. Need to stay out of there. Found a couch. A camelback traditional thing. I fell in love, GG. I did. Looked at the fabric. And (insert little red censored sign thing here) I went right for the most expensive one. It called to me from among hundreds of choices. I brought the fabric sample home. To see if it is really true love. I am trying so hard to get over it. I do not want to be in love with that fabric sample or that couch. We shall see. I struggle so.
