I would have loved to read a post just like this in a more positive and less righteous tone.

There is also a vintage bazaar being planned for February in Lincoln Square.... http://www.thevintagebazaar.com/ ... if you are into renting a table and selling in person.

There are six (maybe seven) colors in that first rug--so you will have WAY more options to change your mind later.

There is nothing wrong with the second rug, but I think with your also very neutral furniture and wall color, it would come off "sleepy" instead of "zen".

Good luck, I don't think we were much help deciding!

Yesterday I spent a free hour and a half at the Chicago Center for Green Technology, reading in their library and walking around the native garden.

Other top contenders for spare time are my local CPL branch, taking the dog for an extra long walk and an in-depth cleaning of something like the bath tub or closet.

When I have a free morning or afternoon, I want to use it in a relaxing way, not rush around trying to fit in five things. Although that's very tempting, I know I will only be exhausted at the end and still not finish everything.
