I should have you come and decorate mine. What kind of rates do you charge? Just kidding, the airfare alone would put me over budget. I love getting free stuff too, maybe because I have no choice in the matter. Half the stuff in our apartment was given to us and the other half came from IKEA. Glad you guys have settled in to your new place. P.S. You need to post another picture of the computer desk. I couldn't see it very well in the picture you have up. We bought a chair and an end table from a thrift store and I am in the process (meaning that I work on it every couple of months) of sanding them down. We are planning on painting them black also.

Don't forget Freecycle. We got two office chairs and bunkbeds for free. It looks great! Don’t forget Freecycle. We got two office chairs and bunkbeds for free.

Suzie, yeah, i'm not offended, and i hope you're not offended that i pretended to be almost-offended. just saying if for effect, you know. (don't tell Uncle B i said he was a tightwad). it was so great to see you guys at thanksgiving. we are pretty close to you here in dick and jane land. maybe we can hang out sometime?

(there are good ways of decorating that way and not so good ways- your's is awesome!) I would say my house now has been furnished in pretty close the same way. Though, i think more of it has been given to us- i'm that cheap! we haven't even bought a computer desk 'cause we have a lap top and it just goes nicely on my lap. anyway, i think your place looks great! i'm all about second hand stuff! so, i think you did an EXCELLENT job! definetily didn’t mean to sound offensive with the whole uncle barry thing. but you know, it just runs in the family.

Those barstools are exactly like ours - Target, right? We love our 3 for multiple reasons, mostly because they are big on top and the boys don't fall off (really I mean they fit me). And I love your flat screen computer monitor. And your tree and decorations. We're putting ours up as soon as this dumb bridal shower is over, no offense to Jeanna, who is not dumb and I'm happy to host this for her! So glad to see pictures of your new place!
