Home-made... well, sort of...

My birthday was a couple of weeks ago... Oops. Jason had class from 8 in the morning until 5pm on my birthday. The Saturday before my birthday we went to the Old Spaghetti Factory. YUM! I LOVE their bread and spimoni! I was so close to buying some for my home freezer and decided I would be better off without having easy access to it. Anyways... On my actual birthday we went and ate Thai food. It was so good. We also got to pick up our car from the shop on my birthday. It looks so nice. I'm glad they did such a good job, and the paint looks great.
A little more than a week after my birthday, this showed up on my doorstep. I got to assemble it (one of my favorite things about getting desks and whatnot). There were a couple of pieces that were broken so I had to call and get unbroken pieces sent to me. Luckily the pieces were for the drawer and the back (those showed up a couple of days later) and they weren't necessary to assemble it right then.
The bottom piece unfolds into a desktop and the extra space behind it is storage. I wanted to put both my serger and sewing machine down there but they were just a little bit too big sitting side by side. We went to Home Depot and got some supplies and ended up making a little shelf to sit my sewing machine on so both machines will fit in the bottom part.

Now Jason can use the computer desk and I have my own desk to sew and make things.

well aren't you the crafty one? How are you feeling? Obviously well if you're eating Italian and Thai.

Can't wait to see you.
