Hardwood is very nice.
Cabbage too? I didn't know that, all I know is that i've never smelled anything quite that bad before.

And yes, hardwood floors are nice, after you sand, stain and seal them. I plan on teaching him how to do it this weekend.
It's gonna be a hands-on lesson. His, not mine.

Today, I just got a call from them which I answered. I asked the guy very sweetly for the company's name, phone number and address so that I can forward it to my friend. Once he gave it to me, I told him that if I ever receive another call from his company, I'm reporting it to the FTC as I'm on the do-not call list and have repeatedly told them to stop calling me as it is harassment.
OH, then you need to do this ...this will make you LYAO about what this guy did to a telemarketer and I cannot believe he could do it without laughing himself.

I've done the same thing and it requires washing rewashing and rewashing again before ya' can get the sticky smelly coffee & creamer smell out of the furniture.
Drink it black.

Aks, it's the same desk, but we took the new computer back 2 days after we got it and put our old one back to use. Too many issues for a new computer. We made the mistake of checking reviews after we bought it - so much for impulse purchases, huh? He did come home w/a new wireless mouse and keyboard, tho.

I usually do drink my coffee black, but iced coffee has to have flavored creamer.

^^ I too do an impulse buying at times. PC’s, cameras, seem to excite me most and I seem to desire most all of them when I’m browsing at a store. Usually impulse buying doesn’t turn out well. I love the new wireless mouse that I’ve bought and ended up buying more of them because they were on sale just to have an extra one around. Those little thingies that you have to plug into the USB port can get lost on a laptop and cost more than what I paid for the whole new “spare” mouse.

Parenting is a life sentence... it doesn't get better the older ur kids get and when they get grown then they want to be ur parent even if their chronologically 15. I was talking to a guy whose oldest kid is 50 and he said she still gives him grief. It is a good thing parenting is so rewarding or else it would not be worth it

^^ I've been using a Logitech M305 that I've bought at Target for under $15 on sale and I've had such good luck with the first one I bought two more for the other pc plus a spare. I've never had any battery issues with any of them yet. It's been nearly a year on the first mouse and I've still not replaced the AA battery.

I love the mouse and hate the "finger" pad on the laptop.
