The IKEA Purchase

We finally put the IKEA purchase to good use this afternoon! I wasn't sure if it would get done given the amount of cleaning and laundry that needed to be done as well, but it's finished. I looooove it, and obviously my husband loves me given the fact that he allows a huge purple/pink flower in our room.

We have a "sitting area" in our bedroom that we currently have as a workout area. Our room is a little bit gigantic (ie: a big waste of space) and it FELT gigantic. Now I think it feels a little bit cozier. Check it out:

So, all of this done PLUS the upstairs of the house cleaned and a few loads of laundry done. Not too bad for a day's work! Unfortunately there is still another half of a house to be cleaned and countless loads of laundry left to do...
