"You Sound Sick"

Co-worker: "You sound sick."
Me: "No, I'm just tired."

That's how my first conversation of the morning began.

As I'm sure you could have guessed, this weekend was spent moving and putting together Ikea furniture.

Misty and Theresa unimpressed at how difficult Ikea makes things

On Friday night, Theresa and her boyfriend came over to help us. What should have been a simple TV bench took absolutely way too long to put together. Maybe it was the beer. Or that it was late at night. Or that there were too many people offering suggestions on how to read those impossible instructions. Either way, the TV bench didn't get completed that night.

"We can put this bench together, Misty! I believe in us!"

On Saturday, after a good nights sleep, I decided I'd try to finish the TV bench myself, while Andrew was at work.

Success! I did it!

I then moved onto the bookshelves, which I thought I had put together successfully. Until Andrew came over and pointed out that I put one of the shelves together backwards. Opps.

We spent the rest of the night working together, to complete our living room. I'm happy to say that the living room has officially been put together!

Our new living room!
Complete with a sofa bed!

I couldn't be happier with how it turned out!

Sunday was spent sleeping in. We then started moving some of our things, such as clothes, washroom stuff (shampoo, my endless amount of makeup and hair products, etc) and our mattress in from the old place to the new one.

Of course, it started raining, we were tired, and Andrew had things to do to prepare for his shift in the morning, so we didn't get to move everything in. We still have lots to do and I'm exhausted thinking about it.

For some reason, my thighs are killing me too and I'm walking like I need a cane.

I already know that it'll all be worth it when the move is complete though. I just can't wait until it is!

How was your weekend?
