The Furniture 28 June 2007

My parents decided to get us a new bedroom set for birthday/mother’s day/father’s day. So we ordered it this past weekend and they were to deliver it yesterday. On Sunday they called and said it would be about 3-4 weeks on the bed because it was damaged and they had to wait for a new one to be shipped from the manufacturer. So ok, at least they aren’t delivering something that is damaged.

Anyway, I went home early yesterday because our furniture was supposed to be delivered between 3:30 and 6:00 pm. Around 3pm, they called and said it would be closer to 6:30/7pm before they arrived. At 7:30 I called and had them check on the delivery guys. I was told it would be another hour because they were running behind. Finally a little after 9pm they showed up with our stuff. So we now have new bedroom furniture minus the bed. And it’s a sleigh bed. woohoo! I can’t wait for it to get here so we can have the complete set.

We were in desperate need of a new set. The old headboard was metal and cheap. We picked it up when we moved in together 6 years ago. The chest and nightstand were cheap particle board we got from a friend and one of the drawers is broken. The dresser is the one I had in high school! And I’m 32! Holy crap. Yeah, we were due for something new and matching.

It looks so awesome in the room. I finally feel like we have a grown-up, “parents” bedroom. If that makes any sense. Can you tell I’m totally loving it already and we’ve only had it since 9pm last night?
