Our dining room table

Since 1969
This is where
we had our meals
Raised our children
regarding table manners
Received and entertained
numerous guests
Too many to count
Had countless meals
Served coffee/tea
Relaxed with wine and snacks
Received good news and bad
Folded dozens of news letters for
the marathon club
Chatted about everything above and beyond
Did administration
Cut out paper patterns
Followed by yards and yards of fabric
Cut out 4 weddings dresses
Did sewing that almost stretched around the world
Painted to hearts content
What else?
I replaced the upholstery of the chairs
quite a few times.
Done.
Enough.
