I know the new trend is hardwood floors. But, I hate, hate, hate cold hardwood flooring with "area" rugs which I trip over all the time. Most houses look like libraries or museums now with the cold echo of one's voice rather than the hominess of carpet. If I have offended you with the hardwood floors, I apologize, But the warm, softness and welcoming feeling of carpet is my thing, PLUS it is QUIET!! No, clacking of shoes and NO cold feet. That's just me. I love my wall-to-wall carpet. I'm glad it brought back memories.

Keep going, Barbara. I am trying to get to 147 pounds. I still have my "jelly belly" to take care of.

Hang in there. You can do it!!!
