January 2008...Just Around the Corner

That is what the sales clerk told us when she set the delivery date for our new end table from Neiman's. I almost had a heart attack....seriously? January 2008?? And this was ordered at the end of September, when I couldn't believe we would wait almost a half a year for a piece of furniture. With our fickle taste, who knows what we'll even LIKE at that point?

Just the same, one month later, I'm still really excited about both of our new pieces...or soon to be ours when they are delivered...in January 2008 (did I mention that?)

#1: End Table from Neiman's: How cute is this? Just cute and funky enough, with a great color of "celedon" to put a little punch into our living room:


#2: Florence Knoll Marble Top Coffee Table: This was originally Dave's idea and I am now really excited to see it in our place. My Mom had this really great, really durable coffee table in her Raleigh house. It was the kind that you could put your feet up on, put your drinks on without coasters (and Mama Dianne wouldn't even blink an eye!), you could drop a brick on this thing and it wouldn't even flinch. It was awesome. Our new table isn't exactly that way, but it's along the same lines that it's fashionable (to us at least!), while being fully functional and comfortable.

Anyways, these are the newest additions...soon! We just have to get a couple of bedside tables, a rug for the living room and curtains for the bedroom (so it doesn't look like it's 12 o'clock noon at 12 o'clock midnight), then we are officially "settled"! First things first...January 2008...just around the corner.
