a long weekend of furniture
Posted in: General
My long weekend will be devoted to attempting to furnish my bedroom.
Part (A) involves scrabbling about under someone’s house to see if an old fireplace they have is the right size and shape to slot into the space under the mantel in my room where – at present – there is nothing but a large, boarded over hole.
Part (B) involves a drive to Bendigo to look at a wardrobe which just might fit the unusual space I’ve set aside to house the wardrobe in my ideally laid-out room.
What’s the bet, after all the effort, neither will be quite right?
Alternatively, I could be a very happy (tho’ much poorer) person, with a much better decorated bedroom.
Gratitude
After driving her to Kew to look at a fireplace…
and to Bendigo and back to look at a wardrobe…
and lending her five hundred dollars to help pay for the wardrobe (‘cos those ATM card limits are a pain)…
and stopping for a snack, and buy…
