You are SO flippin wrong about this!!!! THIS is the extreme wastefulness of our culture!! We spend ALL our time outside IN FRONT of our house!! That's where people are! It's only in the WASTEFUL suburbs that people sequester themselves away from their neighbors!! I get such a kick out of my down the street neighbor who loves to tell everyone that he spent 16 K landscaping his backyard--guess where he spends all his time-- on his 2k blacktopped driveway talking to us! What a hoot. Wake the heck up America! Stop spending on crap--spend your treasure on RELATIONSHIPS!!

woah, woah, everybody!!!!!! ditch the chemicals--even the "natural" ones!! get yourself a stash of Mr. Clean Magic erasers for goodness sakes! Takes the stuff off the grout-- no elbow grease. You will, however, need one pad per shower, maybe two. I buy the cheap ones from the dollar store.

five yards per chair--easy!

There is a reason #4 is correct. You have the formula wrong for the others. Also, I think you need to take the style of the lamp into account-this is a mid-century lamp--"coolie" style doesn't work with that!

Boy-- no kidding ChrisGal! Once you've purchased a fabulous "find" from the thrift store (ninety dollar, white 60's sofa that had been covered in plastic-woo hoo!) it becomes difficult to spend more than that on ANYTHING! A blessing and a curse for those of us garage sale-ers. It has taught me patience and perseverance--to say nothing of the extreme frustration when you are right behind the person who finds "it" first! The motto has to be--"If it's meant to be, it'll come to me!"

Ditch the mirror. Keep the wall calm. Less, less, less.

Brilliant-- the backsplash behind the faucet next to the toilet looks like an impressionist painting on the picture! I find this spaceto be incredibly invigorating! Bravo!
