It’s a Love / Hate relationship…

I love Ikea.
The Swedish Meatballs and Mac and Cheese isn’t the only reason.

So much stuff. So much cheapness. So much high quality cheapness. My head spins with the glory of it.

I love that there is lots of stuff. I love that the lots of stuff comes in nice little boxes. I friggin’ hate putting that stuff together.

I cleared out the messy side of Shaun’s bed to put the new 29.00 desk in and as a “I am Woman…hear me Roar” moments I decided to take apart the old computer desk and install the new one.
I got the nicely packaged stuff out of the box and that is where it ended.

The sweat started to pour down my face when the phone rang. It was Dan.

“You called because you know that I’m attempting to put together something and you’re calling to get me off the ledge right? I HATE IKEA! Are you on your way over here? WELL?”
He said, “No.” and then he forgot why he called because the frenzied, rapid fire question threw him off.

I made him come over and put it together. YAY. I love Ikea again!!

Guess who got the crappy old desk? Yep…me!
Normally I laptop from my bed-wearing pjs-pony tail-looking like I was beat up by the sandman.
Today. I look exactly the same, but I’m doing it from a desk less than 4 inches from my bed.

Moooovin’ on up.
