Quite the Day!


sarah_lr 003



I spent yesterday afternoon/evening over at Sarah's. She had bought some furniture, and I was going over the help her assemble it, and arrange her living room. We were just trying to figure out how to get the heavy pieces up to her condo, and Sarah said.... I hope I didn't get WHITE pieces. She went down to look, and sure enough! So off to Ikea we go to exchange it all. It was quite amusing on our trip across town to Ikea, because she had her Escape so full, the passenger seat was moved as far forward as it could go, and tilted forward. So I had to squeeze my fat ass in there, and ride that way! I practically had my forhead squeezed against the windshield!



We got to the store, and exchanged everything, and she bought a chair too. After we got it all loaded up, we headed over to Grandpa's to borrow his dolly. It took 5 trips, but we finally got everything up into her condo. It took us about 3 hours to assemble the 2 bookcases, TV stand and chair, but we did it! Girl Power! It's so funny, because she owns a hammer and a pair of pliers, and they both have black feathers and rhinestones on them! Heh! We moved all her things back on the shelves, hooked up everything, hung her pictures all back up, and hung her chandelier. I moved the loveseat from one side of the room to the other, and it made a HUGE difference!! It all looks GREAT! You can't really tell from the picture, but just trust, me it does! While she was putting away the last things, I vacuumed, and tidied up, and then we called it a night.



So today.... tired, and SORE!
