Which do you prefer? This would be for a dining set in cast aluminum that looks like wrought iron and would be used on a wooden deck (not a patio). I like the look of dining chairs (i.e., with legs) because I prefer a traditional style with my old house, but I’m wondering if swivel chairs would be more comfortable and practical on a deck (no legs to get caught in the cracks). Opinions?
One more thing — swivel chairs cost about twice as much as dining chairs.

Why is my toe hurting?




About a week and a bit ago i leant back on my chair and my legs went up and kicked the metal bar under the table lol. But ever since that, the skin on the right side of my big toe on my right foot has been really hurting me. Its like the top right corner of my toe is hurting from the outside (if that makes any sense) its really red and really painful and sensitive. Should i go and get it checked out?

I got to the gym every day and every wednsday I work my ches and legs…

I play football a lot with my friends and I am the fastest one there. But I want to be even faster.

When I do legs
1st is quads. I do this macine where I sit in this chair and lift the bar with weights kick up (I’m at 40lbs 4 sets of 10) with my feet it works my quads.

For the 2nd one I work my hamstrings. You lay face down and lift the bar with the back of your feet you kick towards your butt (I’m on 40lbs on this also 4 sets of 10)

3rd is the calf work out. You put your sholders under these 2 pads that go right to each shoulder. Lift with your shoulders than you go flat foot to tippy toes and works the calfs… (I’m on 100lbs 4 sets of 10)

Will this make me run faster… if not what will.

I don’t do squats or lunges because I don’t have a partner to spot me.

Can you name these gym machines?




I have to name these machines i do at the gym, but i can’t remember the names?
1) I like flat, and push up a weighted bar(bench presses i think)
2) I sit on a chair and a weighted bar lies on my feet, im supposed to lift my legs up.
3) I sit facing the machines and pull down the weighted bar to behind my neck.
4) I lie flat, stomach down. Weighted bar lies on my feet, then i lift up my feet.
5) I sit on a chair and push a par straight up.

Can you name these or link me a website where i can find the names? Thanks :)

I have looked everywhere..I just want the cheap, plastic patio sets with the tables (w/removable legs) & chairs… I have looked everywhere - Target, Wal-Mart, Home Depot, Lowes, Ace, etc. & I can’t find them on any of their websites. Do you think if I go into the stores I might find them? Help! Having housewarming BBQ in June & I have nowhere for people to sit outside.

BTW…is it rude to ask guests to take of their shoes when they come in my house? LOL.

When sliding the chairs in and out around the table, will the bottoms/legs scratch a painted concrete patio? We are going back and forth on whether or not to buy a new metal patio set and need to know from people who have this situation…ASAP!

The most embarrassing thing happened today. My dad took me and my older sister out to lunch. Well my dad walks into the resteraunt talking on the phone really loud and we were sitting in the middle of the room. My dad had his chair turned out talking on the phone loud, legs open like he was in a freaking sports bar. I wanted to die. Then when the waiter came my dad sat there for ten minutes making the waiter stand there because he couldn’t find something with both a burrito and beans (we were eating mexican) and he was complaining it wouldn’t be enough food for him omg! Anyways finally he orders and my dads friend who he hasn’t seen in a while comes over and they are sitting there talking all loud and what not and I’m trying to figure out WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU WE ARE IN A FLIPPIN’ RESTERAUNT YOUR A 43 YEAR OLD MAN NOT A 5 YEAR OLD USE SOME MANNERS!! I love my dad but now I’m kind of afraid to go out to eat with him. I don’t know what to do.

He was allways starting out the show sitting in a Bar stool type chair. Told a few jokes as he drank his Whiskey. The other wierd thing is that he was allways swiping "those little buggers" off his legs. If was kindof a joke.

Tell me what you think of this please?




She sits there. All alone, yet not. She is accompanied by her memories. Her memories of him. And her. Together. For what she thought would be forever. But forever has to end sometime, right? So he left her. He ended their forever. He is gone–ripped from her world.
There a just two things residing in what used to be their living room: a small table with a rose resting upon it, withering away in a tall, slim vase filled to the brim with water, and a wooden chair with her placed precariously on the seat. The two were facing each other, facing off. She has her feet crossed, with her knees drawn into her, like a cage for her chest. She felt as though there were a huge, gaping hole in her chest, and that the bars her legs made would keep her from falling to pieces. She has her head in her knees. Her hands are sopping wet. Her vision is groggy.
He took her furniture. He left bare her left hand. Her left her. She couldn’t get over the fact that he left her. And he was never going to come back. He was gone forever. Never again would she see his face, lying and deceitful. Never. Then why should she get so upset about it?
As she replayed the scene of his departure, she grew angry. He has come home from work, like any other day, with her daily rose he handed her as he walked through the door, but that day, something was different. That day, he had a plan glistening in his eyes. She knew something was wrong, but before she could ask, he told her, “I’m leaving.” he handed her the papers in need of her signature, and he walked silently out of the door he had just come through. Within an hour, trucks has begun to arrive to haul away the furniture that they had worked so hard to purchase. She just stood there, in utter disbelief. Not a word came out of her mouth; not a tear came to her eye.
Thinking back on this, she grew angrier and angrier. She removed herself from the small wooden chair and threw herself at the rose. It had become a battle. A battle to end her grieving. A battle to prove to herself that she was strong. A battle to stop him from protruding into her thoughts and making her eyes water. She was done.
The tyrant ended in slow motion. The vase containing the rose stumbled solemnly, slowly, eventually, onto the barren floor.
The pieces of the shattered vase and the pieces of her shattered heart ended up in the recycling bin.
Well, obviously it’s sad and about an angry woman, but WHAT DO YOU THINK OF IT?!
Ok, so I wrote this in about an hour in my creative writing class. I had to get inspiration from four words. I can’t remember what the wrods were, though.
And I have my own way of writing. I use incomplete sentences to make a point.
And I’m sorrrryyy you have a mind that can’t follow a simple little story about a girl throwing a vase across the room…
That’s not at all my fault.

Wondering what type of stain to use?




I have just recently purchased some unfinished open wooden boxes from the craft store and would like to stain them, particularly with a dark wood stain, almost a black with maybe some very subtle red grain coming through. I think I am looking for a gel stain. Something that has a waxy look. Or maybe need a regular stain and then need to polish it with a clear wax. I think the gel stain or wax tones the black coloring down. I am looking for that asian style. A lot of furniture in Pier 1 has what I am looking for. Before I screw all the blocks together and attach legs to it to transform it into a small kitchen island, I would like to get this done. Does anybody know what I am talking about?

what color couch/love seat set should i get?




my fiance and i are so back and forth between two colors - fern or beige

the fern appeared dark in the warehouse, but i’m wondering how light it might actually be once it’s hit with sunlight. i prefer it looking dark

and with the beige, i’m concerned there will be a washout effect in our living room since the walls are white, carpet is light colored, computer desk is tan, bar chairs are beige seats and brown legs/arms, kitchen cabinets are tanish too. we live in a condo, so redecoration is not an option. and the kitchen and living room are open together. and computer is in living room.

our tv is a flat screen which is piano black and sits on a dark brown stand (SO doesn’t match - i know). just throwing that out there.

we do have stuff to hang on our walls, but haven’t done so yet. just moved in about a week ago and we’re procrastinators (plus we have to work)

what would you do? wish i had a link to show you the colors and the couch but it’s not available
