If there is one person in my family who loves mid-century modern furniture it would be me. My grandma had a lovely dining room, living room set that ended up at my parents house and has now, naturally been distributed around the family. It's like a little mid-century modern fairy has visited my family -- leaving a desk here, a dining room table and chairs AND hutch there. ... Yet that mid-century modern fairy has not visited me. (In all honesty, I will concede that it might have if I didn't live in Boston some mere 2,500 miles away from the current location of the furniture the fairy might have visited me.) However, the mid-century modern fairy (AKA my mom) has agreed to give me the end tables and coffee table and I am currently making plans to swipe this dining room set from my sister while I am staying with her. The coffee and end table are the only reason I am contemplating a 2,500 mile drive because I am not sure an airline would consider an end table carry on despite the fact that I have enough children to allow me to bring the whole set. So unreasonable!
And I have gotten a verbal contract from my sister that if she ever gets rid of the dinning set she will give it to me. I am planning on firming that up with a written contract as soon as I put myself through law school.

Just remind me. My mind is a sieve. Mark says come and get it. :)
Can we consider this a written contract? (I can take a screen shot -- well, if I look up how to do it)
Can do. Although, how about we get a new table before you come and get it. We don't like to eat on the floor. We'll require some notice. :)
