February is Almost Gone!

And I've barely posted.  For that matter, I've been a bad blogger and have not posted much this year.  I guess you can say that work has me burnt out right now.  Thank heaven for a holiday on Monday and a longer weekend.  Seeing as it's the first weekend off in ages, it will seem extra long! Yay!

So upon my return from Indianapolis, my sofa arrived.  Oh, it is a thing of beauty...and comfort! After years of not having real, big girl furniture, I'm on a roll.
It's a lovely natural linen and it's firm but cushy, all at once. It's comfortable to sit on, to lie on, to wallow with a glass of wine while watching TV...all of which I've not really done much of as I've not been around much since it was delivered.  But I have plans!  Big plans full of a few bright and color throw pillows.

I also ordered a rug from Gilt Home and can't wait for it to be delivered.  I believe the Pixie Palace will begin to take shape this year.  I'm not going to rush it, I want to buy only the things that I really love, even if it means waiting.

In the meantime, I'm feeling a bit "hoarder"-ish as I wait for someone to take my old futon off my hands and out of my apartment.  There's hardly room to walk and it must go!  Freecycle seems to be a bust, people want it but they don't want to lug it down from a third floor walk up.  Next up, I will try and see if Goodwill will pick it up.
