My mother did a lot of the "what if the kids want it" and is now finding her in a position to get rid of a lot of stuff now that my brother and I are out of the house because we didn't take all of it . . . plus with all the moving J and I need to do the next few years, I don't think I need to pick up extra stuff to move, even though kids are in our roadmap.<br /><br />@Katie--Summer project was exactly what I was thinking, although not what my advisor is thinking, I'm sure.

I also get into the thought process of, "Maybe if I have kids they'll really like them..." even when I'm in an no-kids mindset. It's one more way to hoard, I suppose.<br /><br />Those are really beautiful, and refinishing them sounds like LOTS of work.
