Back to moving. I can finally afford a place of my own. Place, yes, furnishings, not really. All my furniture was left behind in New York. Just about everything. I saved a table lamp that was put together for me in a factory in China. It was not just the lamp, but the love of the workers that mean so much.
I have a few blankets and a bedspread, but no bed. I'll probably get a $10 inflatable mattress for now. I will get a beat up, stained click clack sofa bed from Poppy and I'll borrow a few lawn chairs. There is a tiny chest of drawers that I keep my jewelry supplies in and there is a folding craft table to put my sewing machines on.
Sewing machines. Oh yeah, I have this Hello Kitty machine but I'll need a serger. I do have 2 plastic saw horses that I can put a board on for a table, I have a few dishes and pots and pans. No microwave or coffee pot. I do have a pot and a French press. I like french press coffee any way.
I have a folding TV table, a laptop that will probably die in the move, a 5" TV (no, really) and my android phone I can watch shows on. I have a heated back massager with no chair to put it on, a foot bath, and lots of buckets full of fabric and jewelry supplies . I'll throw some of the fabric over them, and call them tables.
What I need:
a serger, a bed, a microwave, towels, maybe a real TV for when the kids come to visit (not necessary though) chairs for guests, a dining table of sorts. For now my place will be sort of "Norwegian Wood" I hope my guests won't mind sitting on the floor.
Well, soon I'll be off to my new life adventure. Wish me luck and be sure to stop back to see what I'm up to. I have a big surprise for you too. I'm going to start another new career, and I'll need all the support I can get. I'll be giving you little hints here and there. It will be out of my apartment, it will be creative and it will be very different.

That has to be my favorite quote ever. Today, anyway. :)
Best of luck with your move.
