Day 10 - Monday 24 May 2010The definition of that Furniture franchise in Melbourne took a whole nother meaning for me today..
I woke up under the weather and whereas I though I was getting up to start a new day and go to the Shteiblach for morning prayers, I found myself back on my matress on the floor faster than I could think!
At about 3pm when I finally manged to get the strength to get off the floor, I was told by my roommates that someone was offering a free couch on one of the websites we check daily, trying to furnish our new apartment and all, and for some reason I had to call up about it!
Needless to say, we called up, and luckily the place was about 4 mins around the corner, so we walked over, checked it out, gave it a butt test (sit test) and said thanks we'll take it!
All those years of shlepping stuff for Bnei and helping Dad gave me the foresight as to how to maneuver it out of the house (and to Ep to for when we had to unpack the entire Shaliach house and pack it into one room), and the shlepp back to our place and up the stairs was fun to say the least! A good workout for someone who hadn't eaten all day and was probably dehydrated!
So pretty much the photo sums up my day - a glass on the table, because I had a liquid day of water, water, water, bourbon & coke, and water - and the couch, which now proudly sits in our living room!
And what's the best way to get over feeling sick? Keep Smiling! =)
Was there any coin under the couch pillows?
