Thank you !
I had an entire bedroom suite that goes with that dresser. I've had it since 1975, It is wooden and sturdy and I've dragged it with me my whole adult life. A piece on the bed eventually broke and after scotching it together for years I finally replaced it just a few years back. I still have all the other pieces. I long for those days when furniture and other things were made high quality, even if you didn't have a fortune to spend.... but that's another story.... right?
I try to be real careful and most times it works. Other times I get surprises later. LOL This time went well though.
It has been satisfying and I am still working on it.
I knew you had been going through and sorting your things. Such a task, but it seemed when you finally made up your mind for sure, you jumped right in and it has been going along nicely.... or that is how it sounds. ;0
I have dallied with the thought of selling online from time to time. Who knows what the future will hold on that.
I am halfway through my Friday workday now. Just a few more hours till weekend freedom!
Yes furniture that's affordable is such poor quality, good wooden furniture costs the earth! One can pick up nice pieces at auctions but I've never had time for that. Managed to get a beautiful hall stand online for next to nothing, it was an emigration sale.
The house is on the market, will take time though as people are reluctant to invest in property, especially after our president signing the expropriation bill. Young people are leaving in droves!
I'm enjoying decluttering though!
There is something oddly satisfying about cleaning out or sorting things. Usually accumulation is so slow you barely notice, then one day you think, how on earth did I get so much stuff??
It is sad what many countries are doing to their people, but for someone willing or having some other reason to stay, your place would be a dream, especially when it has the set up for possible additional income already.
