Well, with all of the many things to talk about, today I want to talk about a keyboard. I just barely bought a plug in keyboard to attach to my lap top. My lap top has been a good little computer, peppy, runs well but, it drops key strokes. I will be typing along and it will just leave letters out. This is not a big deal in the whole scheme of things and honestly, I've just lived with it for the past three years. But last week, I threw up my hands and started looking for a keyboard. Do you know how much they are on Amazon? $8. Eight dolars!! I could have avoided the three years of frustration for just $8. I ordered one right then and there.
What else in my life could be fixed by just a tiny bit of effort?
Well, now I'm on a mission. Our first fix was a spice organizer. I have looked through piles of bottles forever. Now, every time I open the cabinet, I know where everything is. So satisfying.
Ever since we moved into our house, there's been a corner in our front room that drove me crazy. I kept putting different pieces of furniture there in the hopes of improving it. What we really needed was a bench that would add some seating but have storage too. We finally bit the bullet and went shopping. There was nothing I even half liked for under $1,200. We aren't really in the $1,200 phase of life with wildy kids. So, we went to Ikea and got creative. We started with this:
It's a sofa table. Heber took it out to the garage and cut the top part and that I painted it. And now it looks like this.
