an upside down house
I got a call yesterday from the furniture store. They’re delivering our furniture on Wednesday. I tried to schedule a different day – or even a different time (10:30-2:30 is not a great window in the middle of the work week.) They wouldn’t let me. (As soon as we get our furniture, I may have to review this company. I have mixed feelings about them…)
Anyway. That meant we had to get our oversized, over stuffed couch out of the living room by Tuesday night. And we needed help. Two of our neighbors agreed to help us today.
Our downstairs room is a disaster now (even more than before) since I had to move the desk and my computer to make room for furniture. The couch barely fit through the door – and when I say barely, we didn’t have half inch to spare. The door even had to be taken off it’s hinges. (The couch went out the sliding glass door, through the garage, and then through one inside door.) It was interesting. And we’re lucky it fit. Otherwise, we would have been throwing that thing up on Craiglist so fast… I love using websites like Craiglist, the Search All Craigslist tool is really useful since you can literally find anything on it!
We now have one chair in the living room until Wednesday. And the room looks HUGE! Chloe doesn’t know what to do with herself. There’s nowhere for her to crash.
The best part of tearing the house apart? We found the spare key to my husband’s car under boxes in the garage. The spare key that cost $140, and only the dealership can create.
I’ll have to share pictures once we have everything situated. We’re getting pretty excited about our upside down house. š
Yay for furniture delivery, and for finding your spare key! š
