IKEA mission accomplished

Here’s the story. I needed me some chairs about as bad as p daddy needed him some shoes. When we bought our kitchen table I bought seven chairs to go with it. My thinking at the time was six chairs for the family plus one extra. Well, little did I know that I would one day need ten chairs. If you had told me at the time I would be needin‘ ten chairs I would have passed out or laughed hysterically.

The time has now come that I need me some chairs because I have over the last year had to use metal chairs around my table. Gasp! I know definitely a decorator’s nightmare. Not being able to find chairs that matched my original purchase I decided I would go for a different color chair and try and make it work. My kitchen has black counter tops, so a black chair was the obvious choice.

As we entered IKEA, I had a mission: Find and purchase black chairs before p daddy changes his mind about buying them. Once the mission was accomplished, we arrived safely home at a late hour, so there would be no chair assembling that night. The next morning p daddy had to work his side job and mow three yards, one for each chair. I felt bad for p daddy, so I decided to help by putting the new chairs together. (sidenote at IKEA you must assemble your purchases.)

I was quite proud of myself when I finished the job and p daddy was ecstatic that those chairs weren’t still on his honey do list when he got home.
