Arrival of Our Furnitures

Prior to this day, I was still comtemplating whether it is a wise choice choice getting all (well, almost all) the furniture to reach our place on the same day. This thought was further strengthened when the various companies called me on the previous day to confirm that their timings will be from 2 to 4 pm. But after seeing the end result, I guess the choice made was indeed wonderful though it was really by a stroke of luck, rather many strokes of luck, that they do not come all at the same time as they need the space and time to install the furnitures.

The tv console came first at 10+ am, and this was followed by Ikea at 11+ am. We quickly took a lunch break and repaired the lock of our letterbox as it previously could not lock properly. While waiting for the other furniture to come, we started with the assembly of the chairs. I took the more complex portion of chairs, which I took quite a while to understand and orchestrated. My dear assembled the simpler but higher quantity portion of chairs. The coffee table came at 3 pm, and the dining table came in a short while after. This was to be followed closely by the sofa, the wardrobe and finally the bed frame with its side table. Though a better flow would be the bedroom items followed by the living room items, we really could not ask for more. It was smooth enough for us.

After one day of hard work (by the workers and us) and bigger openings of our pockets, let's savour the view of our new house.
