It's tearing, frankly. So I suppose I will have to consider replacement at some point. I also have this thing where I feel like things are still new, and then realize that no, it's been years. This is the story with almost all the furniture in this house-- it's all over 6 years old. I guess other things have held up better than this particular couch. <BR/>And JD is coveting a new TV...Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09745262857388007041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-225058560254819105.post-20411472432583058032008-08-11T10:01:00.000-04:002008-08-11T10:01:00.000-04:00I've been in an artichoke hued phase for a while n...I've been in an artichoke hued phase for a while now, so perhaps it's already passe. I'm not a style setter.<BR/><BR/>I had a visit with a friend this weekend and was very interested in her situation, from a legal standpoint. She is in a civil union (CT), and she had a baby this year (through IVF), whom her partner adopted. She has two embryos left, and her partner wants to try to carry a baby, so my friend will have to make a legal arrangement to allow her partner to take over the embryos, then would have to adopt any resulting child(ren), although she's the one genetically related to them. They were both very enthusiastic and had not encountered any difficulties either with doctors or probate court. So far. Sorry if this is not interesting to you. It's the HOW to make it happen that captured my interest.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-225058560254819105.post-68536844994351053192008-08-11T09:24:00.000-04:002008-08-11T09:24:00.000-04:00antigone: I don't think I've ever felt more grown...antigone: I don't think I've ever felt more grown up and sophisticated than when I was about four or five and my parents taught me to to eat artichokes.<BR/><BR/>Plus, I've always loved the French idiom "to have an arichoke heart," that is, I assume, one that's easily peeled.niobehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10685766216611639434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-225058560254819105.post-90771256655845736032008-08-11T09:07:00.000-04:002008-08-11T09:07:00.000-04:00I never much liked artichokes.I never much liked artichokes.Antigonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09206205690072218302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-225058560254819105.post-38320732449962607712008-08-11T08:05:00.000-04:002008-08-11T08:05:00.000-04:00I was thinking about hexes for my mud room, and wa...I was thinking about hexes for my mud room, and was talked out of it.

I haven't done any research, so I don't know if this is hard for her or not. In your case, I think it is a very good idea.Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06066499436533594138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-225058560254819105.post-23294315160621083202008-08-10T21:52:00.000-04:002008-08-10T21:52:00.000-04:00Ooh I've been doing that home decor thing too!
