For example, a computer room that might double as an exercise room. Then, we need a sewing room that could double as a laundry room and storage room. I have my bicycle in my computer room because it is too hot in the garage for it. The rubber in the tires and tubes and the foam in the saddle all deteriorate in the summer heat. Who needs a dining room? We hardly ever use it! We don't have a formal living room.... Pat >> My home is one of those small cape cod homes. We had hoped to get a bigger place, but never did, now the kids are all grown up. we could use a dining room for the Holidays, the inside Holidays are here. The outside ones are at my Sons. I set up tables in different rooms to accommodate everyone and yet we limit who we have. Jackie
