Making room...

March 2010

October 2011

When we moved here two years ago, we knew the piano would
take priority when it came to space...so, it sits in the
dining room, and all of our "dining" has taken place in the living room,
at a table with two chairs for those sit-down occasions.
It works!

However, over the past few months, our little house has been
rearranged to accommodate some changes in our lifestyle.

Yes, we still eat lots of meals in our laps, watching TV.
But one of the things that was so delightful about my time in Italy
was the way mealtime became a shared experience...an adventure!

So, when Karla and Tenna came soon after I returned,
I created a dining space for three.

Ed and Virginia arrive tonight for a three-day visit,
so, once again, it was time to get creative.
Voila! Table for 4!

I really love how the living/dining room feels now. 
It brings back memories of so many good times
sharing meals with friends and family at the table, 
together. 

It feels like this may have more to do with life expansion 
than just the moving of furniture.
Is it possible we're making room for more folks in our life?
I don't know...
but we do have room to invite them to our table.
