In Which I Buy Furniture

First, I added a couple pictures to previous entries.

Yesterday I went to IKEA. I have been needing bookshelves for a long time. I have had boxes of books piled in my closets, on the floor, in the trunk of my car. So, I trekked off to IKEA, where I bought two bookcases. I even managed to fit them in my teeny tiny car (it's only slightly longer than I am tall). I got them up the stairs, one plank at a time. And I even put one together in about 3 hours.

That was my big adventure for the weekend. It took most of the day. I was going to go to the park, but by the time I unloaded the boxes, I was too tired. But I like my new furniture. It makes my little nest look more finished. Mostly because I bought doors for the bookcases, so all the clutter is hidden. I still have one more to put together, but it'll have to wait. I think I have to buy another screwdriver. For those who are wondering what to get me for Christmas, a toolbox, fully stocked, and an electric screwdriver would be great.
