Aloha Mycell, Thanks for your input. I am going to cut and paste the part of your message about the lazy-susan to the list because I think it's important. I'll leave off your name because you seem to want it private.
As you can see, already we can't agree on when the floor goes in... I knew this was going to be a drama, lolol. The weather is rather dreary today, gray and rainy. The best part is that it isn't cold. Take care, and thanks. Betsy At 01:01 PM 1/10/2009, you wrote: >Hi Betsy, >My opinion on lazy Susan's are their not worth it.
