Once the shower drain under the cabin froze solid and I had no hair dryer, portable heater or even a long extension cord so i crawled into the crawl space under the house and started and tended a m...

I use a bamboo rug on top of wooden floors, under my rolling desk chair. Looks good, works great...

I had the same problem with my round table! I hated the "hang-over" of rectangle placments and round ones don't cover enough width-wise. I made placemats (and coasters and shelf liners...

Doesn't sound like much sex is going on if sheets are only needing changing every two weeks or once a month. Ewww...
