With This Sleep I Thee Bed

So I finally have a bed! Hallelujah! It arrived today, and I spent the whole day waiting, but it's here, no more complaining, no more stress. When it finally arrived, it was in pieces, and of course I did not buy assembly from the store. However, the two Mexican delivery boys "offered" to do it for me for half the price it would have normally cost - for about $30.00 so I just went for it because the last thing I need was to figure out how to assemble it. I am the absolute worst at doing these things, so for my money, that was thirty dollars well spent. This should be the last piece to get for now. I am nowhere near complete, but this is it, the rest can wait, and can be gotten piece by piece. For the first time, I will sleep in my own bed, and I expect to have a full night of sleep now. Fingers crossed. Back to work tomorrow, and I am kind of excited. It is so different in that there is almost no stress, and it is kind of personal for me, like I know what I am doing is really making a little bit of difference, not just making money for a multi-corporation.
