Time for "New" Things

Sheesh It's been a while since I've posted anything new.  I don't know if that is because I'm boring or busy ... or busy with boring stuff.  I think that's probably it.  Well whatever it is, it has really cut into my fun weekend activities.  I did get out to a thrift store a couple of weeks ago and found this lovely mid-century dresser. 

Which, by the way was like meant to be.  I saw it, then went to go find Aaron to show him; he saw it, then went go find me.  He did a quick search to see what mid-century dressers were going for and he found the exact same dresser online for $350.  This one cost us $130.  It's in pretty good condition.  Also, my Ikea dresser was on its last leg.  The drawers were so stuffed that the bottoms kept falling out and the drawers wouldn't close all the way.  There is a down side to this dresser though - small drawers.  People must not have had many clothes back in the day.  Or maybe not so many band t-shirts that they were emotionally attached to, that they never wear, but can't let go of ... ?  Anyway, the dresser sat at the end of our bed for a couple of weeks until we couldn't take it anymore and made the switch.  It was a nightmare condensing all of my clothing, and sadly there were a lot of casualties.  But it's pretty.  And our mid-century furniture collection is growing.  Slowly.
