oh, this is wonderful, the part about Ikea (and thank you very much for referring to my blog...) but my paid instructor keeps suggesting that I get furniture so that everything I own isn't on open shelves...so I've looked on the Ikea site and picked out, god forbid, a potential dresser and a coffee table...now I have to get there and walk around that huge place and pick up the package and haul it back and then put it together...I can't imagine doing any of that...but I can imagine falling over whatever I've left around, which right now is bags of papers I'm tossing out... My lady, who I can only see every two weeks or so, has a theory about not using the floor as a major storage space....I have fibromyalgia which may be part of the reason it takes forever to recover, but a friend of mine, whose mother died when she was 90, said it's the emotional part that's getting me... I'll do more on my blog, inspire by you ...and we'll compare notes...again, thank you..
