30 Something

I really really wanted a new dining room set since K's was going out of business, so over the break I went to the store faithfully to see if the pub table that I was eyeing was being reduced. The price was just over $250 and I was getting ready to lay down the money for it, but decided against it. I was happy I did because a week later the pub table was $80 because three of the chairs had been sold. I kept my eye on it while searching online to find some nice wrought iron pub chairs. Every where I looked they were expensive--nothing less than $200. Finally one one of my trips to the store I saw a beautiful pub chair for less than $30. I jumped at the chance to get the table and two chairs. I was so estatic that I waited. My dining room set cost me less than $150. I also got my tub chair that I asked Terrance for for Christmas. He kept coming up with excuses so I went ahead and bought one of the last two for less than $80. I think overall with the wall hangings, under cabinet CD player, two additional pub chairs, nic nacs and, etc. I spent about $500 updating my place. Along with all of that I celebrated 5 mos. until 30 by buying myself a diamond ring that I'm going to get soddered onto a necklace that I'm gonna buy for my 4 months until 30 celebration. I was so happy for all of my savings until I got my stuff home and had to put it together myself. GRrrrrr. I've never seen so many nuts and bolts in my life. I was exhausted trying to put these huge pub chairs together. On each of the chairs I have at least one nut that wouldn't fit. I don't know what I was doing wrong. Luckily I live alone and don't use my dining room much. There won't be much wear and tear on the chairs with the missing nut.
