...imaginary things are harder to bear than real ones.
I don't know who to credit with this quote, but I found it in the sidebar of a book I am reading and it has kept me grounded these past few days. My reality is a wealth beyond measure of amazing friends and family, (and blog readers - thank you!!) a great little home, good health and of course, Max the wunder-schnauzer to name just the highlights. My imaginary worries got the best of me last week - worries about the future, which, if you really think about it, is imaginary. There is no other moment than now. So now is where I am living today.
And speaking of now, I am now the proud owner of a trunk-turned-coffee-table, which I found for a steal while antiquing with a girlfriend this weekend. I am hoping it holds up better than the checkerboard table, though I have yet to test it on my family. It looks pretty durable, but I haven't dropped a 220-pound man on top of it yet. If I do, you'll be the first to know!

The trunk looks great...and very sturdy! I like the quote.
Very nice trunk! I'd like to witness the test of dropping a 220 lb man on it. Sounds like fun. :)
I would like to volunteer a few men to drop the trunk on. :o) Oh, you said dropping the man on the trunk. Sorry I misunderstood. :)
Love your new trunk Sisser.....

the trunk is great! glad you're weathering things better now. i see you have a mini like me. my schnauzer, presley, is 16 and we adore him!!!!
I love your new trunk / coffee-table! Did it come in these colors or did you paint it? It's great.
Love the trunk! And a personal message from me to your family.....Stay away from the trunk!!!
Excellent idea from Sisser. When you are feeling low make a little list of men you would like to drop a trunk on. It should put a smile on your dial pretty quickly.
Kerri, the trunk is fab and I think it is full of personality AND will be strong and hold up! NEAT find! Go girl!
About your worries......hang in there! We all go through all of these doubts and worries.....you will be ok! ((((Kerri))))
Hugs,Patti
