The fifth weekend in the house was when I got my promised furniture\u00a0from my parents:<\/p>\n

My inherited secretary (’twas my great-grandmother’s, then my\u00a0grandmother’s (on my mom’s side, the one I was named for) has been\u00a0relocated from my parent’s upstairs hallway to my living room, along\u00a0with a dining chair from the other grandparents, which technically\u00a0belongs to my aunt, but she hasn’t space for the dining table in her\u00a0house, so my parents are storing the table and chairs for her… and\u00a0now I’m storing just one of them as well. I’m going to reupholster it,\u00a0but keep the old fabric so that she can return it to pristine state,\u00a0if for some reason she loves ancient gold fabric.

Dante already likes the secretary, but now I keep the doors to it shut.

My guest bedroom now has a bed – the twin bed I got for my tenth\u00a0birthday and slept in until I bought my current queen bed when I got a\u00a0real job. I still love that bed, and I’m glad to get to use it in my\u00a0home. No photos of that room yet, though.<\/p>\n

And I have a tv stand, instead of merely an end table with my tv\u00a0placed on it and DVD and VHS players underneath. A hand-me-down from\u00a0my amazing parents, this is a fake wood stand with an added shelf\u00a0created by my dad. I decided to paint it black instead of introducing\u00a0yet another shade of wood to my living room, which was absolutely the\u00a0right decision – it looks quite handsome in its corner, and holds my\u00a0meager DVD collection quite well… along with my still quite vast\u00a0tape collection. I keep thinking I’ll re-make the mix tapes with mp3s, but even at 99 cents each, it’s about 26 songs for one mix tape,\u00a0assuming I can even find the songs.<\/p>\n

This weekend was also when my dad and I took on the great\u00a0step-building project – see the soon-to-come front porch post for details on that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
