Moving on Up!
I am so incredibly excited!
So earlier this week I was in Office Depot to get printer ink. I decided to take a slight detour and stop by their furniture department. I had seen a flyer when I walked in showing they were having some sales on desks, so I decided to take a look. Granted, I always just assumed when we bought a desk it would be from a place like Nebraska Furniture Mart, since that was the only place I assumed sold nice desks.
Imagine my surprise when I wandered into this little gem? (Literally, I walked right into it while gazing about)
Imagine my even greater surprise when I saw the price- $399! "Hm..." The wheels started turning, and my desperate desire to have an actual desk for our office left me wanting.
But wait, it gets better.
Because of Memorial Day, apparently the store was having some special deals (remember the flyer?) and this desk was included. Sale price? $299.
AND free delivery?! I was getting more and more tempted....
I snapped a quick picture and sent it to Adam and headed home to look up any on line reviews. After all, I didn't want us to end up with something crappy regardless of the price.
So I'm on trusty Google looking up reviews while I get a text from Adam saying we should get it. Reviews were perfect. I'm thinking this needs to happen.
As if to confirm this, the gods decided I needed to have my computer accidentally redirect to Office Depots home page, and there in shiny lights- a $45 off a $300 purchase.
Yeah, I know, right?!
We bought it last night. It took a very long time and was very frustrating (apparently the manager doesn't know how to do simple math) but our brand new pretty will be delivered Tuesday. Adam now has many hours of building ahead of him, but from the reviews I've read- it's worth it!

Me
- Cass
- I'm a newlywed with a love for the little things in life- sipping a cappuccino at a local coffee shop in the sunshine, art that seems to make no sense, the smile my husband gets sometimes when I catch him watching me, the cool breeze in the fall when the leaves are changing, my dog when she has somehow manages to wedge herself under my hand and I find myself petting her unknowingly, the smell of freshly cut grass, the sounds of the ocean, taking photos of instances you can never get back. I feel too much about things but may not always say it. I adore my mother. You'll find I take a lot of pictures. La vita è bella.
