Sunday Fun

So we opted not to go to Harpers Ferry today, as I am still not feeling totally up to par, and Dustin wanted to get some more work in today since he wasn't able to work much on Friday. But it all worked out, Lori from the barn called and said that they were cleaning out the basement under the farmhouse, and had some furniture they were just going to give us, and to come over and see what we wanted. We ended up getting a nice big computer desk, a nice size dresser, a nice lazy boy type chair that rocks as well, probably going to end up being my reading chair lol. We got a nice chest, a tv stand, a mirror that goes with the dresser, and another upright type of dresser with two drawers on the bottom, and then a cabinet with several small drawers inside of it. Greg, Lori's husband put it all in his trailer, and brought it over and helped Dustin move all the stuff into the house which was very nice. Oh, and we also got a small coffee table with a cabinet underneath. So half the battle of getting furniture is now done, and we are very pleased to have been able to get the stuff, and very happy that Lori and Greg were so willing to help us out. So we spent 10 dollars on one of the pieces as it was owned by someone else who wanted a little bit of money for it, and then we gave Lori and Greg another 10 dollars for loading and unloading everything, and driving it to the house. The only thing we need to do is a good cleaning job on everything since it was in the dampish basement, and hasn't been cleaned in quite a while. But for free furniture, its definitely worth the extra time having to clean it, and we just got a big thing of Pine Sol cleaner at Wal Mart last night, so we are putting it to good use. We are very happy that we've finally got some furniture, and can move our clothes off of the floor. It will make the bedroom look so much neater, and with the tv stand, I don't have to worry about the possibility of my tv falling through the box that it is currently sitting on top of, and it will be at a more normal angle for easier watching. I can't wait to try it out, and finally have a place to put my dvds.
