I can never find my shopping list or always end up writing on the back of an envelope, that's just so convienient.
I love your floor, do you find you notice dust a lot more because it's a darker colour? Jet Re: Our Dream Home 284Feb 02, 2008 8:41 am Ladyice,

Is that your dog in your sig? I have a retriever who I shave every year to try and keep down the amount of hair in the house.
