I wish that I lived in a really old house; I'd actually prefer that. I've lived in a couple of old New England colonials where darkness seemed comforting. And I've lived in an Antebellum Southern town house where darkness made sense, too, In this little 1960's stucco, somehow I wanna be near a window. I finally made my peace with my worktable recently when I moved furniture and I split the parts of my homemade desk so I could be working directly in the light in the office; then I moved the topper to the worktable and Voila!

Only one way to find out.<br /><br /><a href="http://electricalexpertsblog.blogspot.com/2017/02/how-electricians-can-help-you-prepare.html" rel="nofollow">Neville @ Electrical Experts</a>Nevillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01284636293810392289noreply@blogger.com
