New Bed

I am feeling better today. Still tired, but better. Another week accomplished. Yay! So, Jonathan came down to Waco with me on Wednesday since he was working from home this week. His mission: to find a bed for me with a REAL mattress to sleep on. I have been sleeping on an air mattress for the last 5 weeks in Waco. I already had a bed picked out, but the trouble was finding a vehicle big enough to carry it, plus we had to find a mattress. All for a reasonable price. The bed I found was at Wal-Mart, and it is a cute little affair with 3 built-in drawers and a bookcase headboard. Assembly required. But "assembly required" means it is in a box small enough to fit in our Jeep, and my wise husband had enough foresight to think to bring the toolkit along with him. So, we bought the bed.


So, today, Jonathan - my hero - built me the bed and bought me a mattress which he had delivered to the apartment. I built the bookcase when I got home from teaching class. Here is the final product:





My room feels like a real room now instead of a temporary camping site! Thank you, Jonathan!
