We got a new coffee table at IKEA last night. A few things will stand out as significant whenever we look at it now:- The big dog in the back of a Subaru on I-5 that just kept doing circle after circle in the hatchback. Hilarious.
- Steven turning to me and saying 'I think we can do it' in a Bob-the-Builder reference to getting the flat packed box into the Altima. We did do it. Because we rock.
- The five to eight fire trucks in our apartment complex when we got home...on site due to an apartment fire close (but not too close) to our unit. Apparently 19 people are displaced from their homes and its 300,000 dollars worth of damage. Ouch. (Further solidifying our need to move-soon.)
- The least labor intensive IKEA purchase we've made yet. 15 minutes...while laughing at references to Shrodingers Cat on a rerun of The Big Bang Theory.
Steven is happy with the coffee table because it is roughly the exact dimensions as the old one (just wider) and therefore continues to be great for putting your feet up on...
I'm happy with the coffee table because I will no longer get splinters and my big red bowl has a new home.
Its a win-win situation. And it looks fabulous in our living room. :)
