Sunday July 8, Late checkout

I haven't done much at my computer today, but I've done a lot in the house. My Wife and I borrowed my Father-In-Laws Carpet Steamer. We didn't steam the carpets, but we did declutter the bedroom. I got a cute headboard when I finally, at the age of 27, got a real bed. By a real bed I mean something that wasn't just a double mattress on the floor. Up until that point I had insisted that this was best, it was the perfect size for me and I felt safe and cozy. It was NOT the perfect size for me and my Wife. She is over six feet and she did not fit.

The headboard was white and I put little heart prints on it using a potato stamp. It was fun and I liked it, but now it's time for it to go. The bedroom isn't that big and this headboard is deep because of the built in shelves. So I thanked it and posted it online. I hope someone will find it, but otherwise I know it will got to the dump. I'll be a little sad if that has to happen, but it's a lot easier letting this go then I expected. I think it has taught me that sometimes things aren't hard, and that maybe if they are I shouldn't get rid of them. I recently tried to get rid of our love seat, but when I started crying my wife pointed out that I didn't need to. We had a couch, we didn't need a love seat. But I wanted it and it fits in our home, so we kept it. This doesn't fit and I'm ready to let it go, so I'm not keeping it.
