saturn | get by with a little help...

I have the best parents. Seriously. They're here in FL visiting me and I'm sick so they got in my car and went to the furniture store to return a rug and order a new rug and a sofa for my den and then they're going to Bed, Bath & Beyond to exchange my place mats and after that they're going to CVS to pick up more tissues and some throat drops. It feels really nice to be taken care of.

(And, somehow, yesterday my mother convinced me to buy a rug and a sofa for my den. The store actually let me borrow the display rug so I could see if I liked it and they let me take one of the sofa cushions to make sure the colors worked. It looks great and it's not unreasonably expensive so I'm listening to my mother and buying it now. And, since this isn't Ethan Allen, I don't have to wait 4 months like I do with my other furniture. This stuff will be here in 2 weeks!)

stargems arrives tonight! (I don't know if you've left for the airport yet but, if you see this, be warned...I have a cold. I promise to try not to get you sick and I promise to try not to fall asleep too early. Fly safe!)

I received a whole bunch of holiday cards yesterday. Thank you
