Before & After..

I've been searching for a new computer table for our family room.  I didn't want to spend a lot of money on a table that we may not even use in our next home...wherever that may be.  In our house in Jax, I had a nice desk area in the kitchen and it was the perfect place for my mac...As big as this new kitchen is, we don't have a space like that here.  I don't want to put the computer upstairs anywhere because I want to see what Riley is doing online.  (I still can't believe my baby is old enough to know how to use the computer!)

This is what I had been using temporarily until I could find something I liked:

Of course I made it look as bad as possible so you could really get the effect!  The printer will go into the laundry room (after I get Andy to splice a cable outlet in there from the basement) since we finally bought an Apple wireless airport which will also make the printer wireless by plugging it into the airport...Maybe I can convince him to do this over Easter break?  I won't hold my breath.

This is what I found to replace the wonderful card table:

A much better look, right?  The drawer in the middle folds down to house my wireless keyboard and wireless mouse.  What a much nicer look and at a GREAT price plus 15% off AND free shipping!  I found it online at Target of all places and got it shipped right to my door.

On a sad note, after I put the table together, I found this:

Which means, it will have to go back and be replaced by another table...but I really like how it looks in the space and I can't wait to get it's replacement!

Oh well!
