It's also on msn.com - one of the featured stories "can this marriage survive"

thanks for the help

That sofa;s gorgeous. No idea who makes it, but if you're looking for something like it, Room and Board's Jasper in a white slipcover is similar: http://roomandboard.com/rnb/collection.do?method=get&id=377651&cat=118

question for those of you with outdoor furniture knowledge... i have been looking for a outdoor patio table that seats about 6. rectangular is preferred, but square and round are acceptable... our yard & house are small, so a drop leaf or extendable table would be great.

i had my eye one the vino outdoor table at ikea because it had the look i wanted: wood top with metal trim & legs.

it was also a great option because the legs folded up for easier winter storage. of course, as soon as it is nice enough to be outdoors in seattle, ikea was already sold out.

anyway, i am looking for a modern patio table (wood or wood/metal combination) to go with these chairs in olive:

i would like to spend around $300 or less. any suggestions out there? or any seattleites looking to sell their ikea vino table? thanks!

laundry issue - Old House wiring -

i swear if this wont be the demise of me... I live in a 1930's flat. The wiring is 120volt. We have a garage with a sink so we can put in a regular washer, but cannot find a 120volt dryer.

Looked into getting it changed to 220 volt, but the landlord will not pay for it, and we only plan to live here for the next 3 years, so why pay for an upgrade for him?

So, should I buy a regular washer and have no dryer? But a combo unit? I am frustrated, and this has led to many arguments I'd like to find a solution, thanks.
