Today I did not get on my computer at all until after my children went to bed. We spend the day as a family and went out and enjoyed the sunshine. We also went out furniture shopping and came home empty handed. We went to IKEA and picked out a table and chair set for our dining room living room.

I must say all the choices at IKEA drive me nuts and made me dizzy. Pick your color, pick your style, pick your size, then look at the thousands of chairs we have (ok, hundreds) and then remember that and pick them up out of our warehouse full of boxes.

We need a table because we are down to three chairs and one of them is about to break and my family is coming to visit us. So we need seating for five adults. I think this is the chair I liked the most. It’s hard to tell in the picture but it is dark brown with a white cushion.

So after IKEA we went to the park to play. My daughter has to warm up to playing. She needs lots of encouragement and help, then she’s off running around. My son, complete opposite. If you let go of him he is off running and you’ll be running after him forever. He’s not even walking yet. Oh the trouble I am in when he starts walking.
