I’ve been assembling replacement furniture all day today, fresh from the swedish wilds. I’ve got a dining room table now, and four chairs. These are the same table, the same chairs I had before, but wasn’t able to bring back with me. I sold them at a loss, bought them at a premium, and have blistered my hand putting them back together again. But regardless of the financial or physical calculations, I can sit, can eat breakfast, can have a space to be that was previously wasted in a pile of unpacked boxes.
I’ve also got this little pictured thing, a rolly cart intended to provide more surface area in an otherwise cramped kitchen. I can’t outcompete the microwave, toaster and blender for horizontal space, so am adding more (at expense of being able to fully open drawers). So far, putting stability issues aside, we’re getting along pretty well. Baby steps towards actually being able to have guests over.
