Next came the cold, metal table borrowed from church. It was the beginning of August, and still no new table. :( After some calling, the furniture company tracked it down--the new table was in Canada and had to walk here on its own, so it would take awhile. No, really the company that made it takes a 3 week holiday in July/August. Wow! Where is that?! I want to work there, too! The borrowed table meant no more meals in our laps in the living room, and school could begin. (August 1)
And lastly, the New Table! Luci was not sure about getting a new table until she found out she could run laps around it. 
Nice! Next, the hutch gets moved back into the dining room and I can use the bottom of it to store our daily-use homeschool books. Then that tacky plastic shelf in the corner can go. We also have a leaf that we can put in when needed, making the table nearly 6 ft long.
