Uff Dah..........


In case you do not know what uff dah means, its Norweigian for I cannot believe I put together 3 pieces of furniture by myself, and Im so glad Im done! Its what you say when you throw your rather ample ass onto a chair and you just are so glad you are done....Uff dah.....it has many meanings........let me just say this, if I ever want to buy another piece of furniture that has to be put together, knock me upside the head.



BUT I do love the red bench from Ikea.........so I moved my cute little oak $5.00 at a yard sale piece down the hall and put the red bench in its place........
So now all thats left is lugging the other Ikea piece, that darling yellow, not so little, cabinet up the stairs, that I CANNOT do by myself..as soon as I get it up there, I will show you....
The weather here in Cali has been odd to say the least...downright cold today, and the sun did not come out AGAIN....June gloom has taken on a whole new meaning around here...BUT Im not going to complain about the cool weather, I will be complaining about the heat soon enough.

The bench looks great!!! You need a little quilt to go on it though. I think I might have the perfect one for you.
I love that $5 cabinet. UFF DAH what a deal.

More cute furniture, love the red bench, Ikea huh? Now I want Sharon's red dresser and your red bench, gotta get to Ikea!! Wierd is right--it was perfect weather here about 75 and sunny and then tonight I went to Barnes and Noble and it RAINED!!! What was really weird though was that there were no clouds and it was raining, people in the parking lot were all looking up and then at each other like what the ???
