Welcome to our bedroom

[chu_hi]

Today Don and I decided to move our bed from one wall to the other. Because our bed is so large, relative to the rest of the room, we had to take it apart ~ and each piece is very heavy. A while ago, we bought shelves for candles, but realized that if we put those shelves above our bed, cats would jump from the bed to the shelves, and set the house

Picture #2 is über-cute!

I am mesmerized by the print (with the four mask-like faces) between the two shelves. It looks vaguely Indonesian, but not really (and the monograph in the corner looks much more Japanese)... where's it from?

> your secrets

I... don't understand?

Woo! Haha, depending whom you ask, we're either the best or the worst. I think we're pretty much the best. =)

I look like a different person in uniform, ha! They're changing our hat a little.

Our hat now has an embroidered logo on the front. The new one will have, like, a button on the side, with a ribbom. I don't know why they would change it! Everybody loves it the way it is!

Bad Feng Shui!! My friend David (Buddhist monk, makesa living on Feng Shui) would enter the room, see the bed against the wall then convulsively clap his hands to gert teh bad energy out.

But hell, I sleep under a beam now so what the fudge do I know? Stupid small rooms that don't accomodate cool beds!

and that is just one cool bed!

Thanks! It's stronger than hell... we broke our last one.

What can I say... Don likes sleeping next to the wall!

I heard having the foot of the bed face the door was bad Feng Shui, so we had the bed head against that wall with the gold picture frames on it - when we had a smaller bed. The larger bed didn't fit that way, so it was to the right of the door. And Don was on the wall.

The room is pretty small, but it feels HUGE now. You can't tell, but there's a lot of space at the foot of the bed, and that space wasn't getting used before. I wanna put a big shaggy rug there.

Sorry, I just woke up, and I'm going on and on about my bedroom!

Thank you! The walls are concrete, and it didn't come with a closet or curtain rods or anything. Every time we change something or hang something, Don has to get out the drill and masonry bits ~ it's a lot of physical toil.

Heh.

I take it you shun the hooks with the four (or three) metal pins that you can just hammer into the wall?

My memories of growing up in S'pore and Al Ain are filled with those things.

Now that's a bed! What kind of wood did you say it was made of?

[chu_hi]

I don't know... the really heavy kind!
