So Yeaaaaa...

Apparently one of the perks of getting married and having absolutely nothing to either of your names, is that you have no furniture either. At this point in our marriage, we officially have a bed, a couple of lawn chairs that my father graciously bought us because we had nothing to sit on, and a couple of outdoor end tables. The couch was bought secondhand from another Marine stationed at Twentynine Palms, and it's really comfortable, but it's a hideous color. Like maroon gone really bad. But me being the amazing decorator that I am (HA!) I bought a mocha colored couch cover from Amazon.com that is really cute. This will transform our otherwise-bare living room, I can feel it.

I really am jealous of those people who get married in their hometowns, and then settle down there, and then proceed to have like the last four generations of their families give them everything they need. I know if we lived in Fernandina, or Swansboro, that our families and their friends would give us everything. But we're not that lucky, so we're reduced to buying from thrift stores and 29palmsyardsales.com. But I have figured out that if you look hard enough and often enough, you can find really good stuff there! It really is true that one man's trash is another man's treasure (supposing that you have the funds to make it your treasure).

Well, we're off to find some bedroom furniture to make our bedroom look more like a bedroom, instead of just a really cheap storage facility.
