Sweet baby jesus, the goodbyecb link worked! 

[JoBub]

This is the link I have bookmarked on my computer, so I wouldn't have known anything was wrong if I didn't see it on FB today!

[JoBub]

I guess everyone else is on Tapa.

One of the admins said in another thread it was because someone's avatar was stolen intellectual property and the owner of it got everything shut down. Sounds like it's not a TCF person though.

Holy shit. I feel like that was a gross overreaction to an avatar on a web forum, but what do I know.

Made it over here! The only other link I had was the weird chat room.

I'm at my grandma's sewing car seat ponchos today. I had tons of fabric left over from Z's so I made one for my nanny kid. His mom posted to Facebook and I got orders for 4 more. They're all cut so I just get to sew today.

I had this link saved too, I wish tapa would come back up tho. I'm all kinds of blah this morning. We were out of milk, so after I dropped N off at school I ran to target real quick. Then ran home to put the milk in the fridge. Well I opened the lift gate of my car and the milk falls out and busts on the ground. I literally cried over spilled milk stupid I know. I'm just in a mood today, sorry for being debbie downer.

This would have pissed me off too. I once had a watermelon roll out and splat on the driveway.

gawd, that's probably worse bc then you have to clean up all the watermelon pieces.  I just said fuck it and will let the milk dry up or wash away on the driveway.

This happened to me in the Costco parking lot. The watermelon rolled right out of my hatch so I picked it up and exchanged it for another one.

Yeah but it was summer so I just hosed it off. Anything that requires me to be outside in the cold longer than expected would have been worse to me. LOL

It looks like TCF is back in business. But for some reason the navigation bar on the left side with all the boards listed is missing for me.

[JoBub]

Where would you shop if you needed a small casual dining table for like an eat-in kitchen? On a mission to find one this weekend.

[becole]

dogmama22 I will pay you to make something safe for the car seat for the baby. Blankets slide off. Idk about a poncho though since he's so little.

Finally made it on here. Baby and I are both sick. Hs lap top died last night. It's not a good week.

We got ours at IKEA. They had a lot of options.

I could probably make one of those shower cap covers if you're using the infant seat - that would be pretty easy. I have some navy fleece and probably some lime fleece I could use. Maybe a plaid once I look at the size. Do you have a Chicco KeyFit?

I am making a newborn size poncho today too. I'll let you know how it turns out.

[dogmama22]

I'd also probably go for IKEA JoBub

This. It's not going to last forever, but you can't be the prices. 

[dogmama22]

becole I should have enough of the plaid. My other prints are girly, but I could always pick up something else if you're not a fan.

[JoBub]

We tried IKEA last week and didn't find anything we're really crazy about. Mostly because of the color. But then again, we don't really know what color we want. The house has dark wood floors with white trim. I'm thinking a white table would work, but H doesn't like white.

The only one we both liked had a light wood table top and painted legs, and I just wasn't a fan of the wood color because of the wood floor. I've never had wood floors. I'm not sure about the do's and don'ts of decorating. Should I avoid lighter wood stuff?

I think we need a picture here. I would go a couple of shades lighter than your floors.

[mrscatfarmer13]

JoBub you could always go with a table that doesn't have a stain and paint/stain to your liking.

That's definitely too much work for me right now.

The only picture I have on my phone. The table would go where the pile of crap is in front of the island.

What about a greyish tone? I found this is it helps with colors:

Navy and lime would be fine. Yes I have a chicco keyfit.

[sstwinklinglites]

Well, now that I see the picture, I think a white table is the obvious choice.

[becole]

JoBub I would do a white table or a colored table- like grey, red, navy blue...

[mrscatfarmer13]

JoBub I think white would be too much white. I would try to pull out a color from your countertops. Your floors seem more medium than dark. Maybe an espresso or black/brown table?

[becole]

We have all kinds of wood stains in our house and none of them match, btw...
I don't do light stains because I don't prefer them but I wouldn't think anything of putting two dark stains by each other and not exactly matching.
