Today I took a jolly trip down to my favorite Swedish store, Ikea (actually I think it's the only Swedish store I know. hahahaha. I know, I live under a rock). I've been meaning to buy some new sheets since I've moved in with Danjel in Singapore but have been rationalizing away the need as he already has bed sheets. However, yesterday it hit home that I needed those brand, spanking new bed sheets. Why? So I can finally feel like it's OUR bed. If we ever move, we're definitely buying a new bed. Ever since I've accepted in my head that I'm in this for the long haul, I've been feeling extra territorial. Dan's been encouraging me to "mark" the place with my stuff since I've moved in but now I FINALLY get it.
Besides, any excuse to go to Ikea is a good one :) And NO trip to Ikea is complete without dawdling over the endless supply of household stuff. Totally useful for picking up random stuff you don't need like glasses (but there is that one glass that is chipped that we need to throw out....) or that potato peeler in green (because everybody needs a green one), amongst others.
I finally land in the bed linen department and after much selection chose one that was SOLD OUT. The saleslady tells me that it will take 2 days but I've already had my heart set on getting new sheets today. By hook or by crook I'm getting sheets! Hence, I ended up with my 3rd choice (yes,2nd choice was sold out too. Booo :()
Here's the one I want -
Oh wells, I'll nab it next time I'm at Ikea which could very well be in 2 days!
For now, I'll be happy with 3rd choice.
