Now we’re really ready for guests

September 6, 2018 6:30 am

Since we moved into A Bitty Better, my dear wife Karen and I had the look of a welcoming spot in the upstairs room.

Really, though …

It was two spare single box springs stacked upon each other with a spread on top to look OK.

Ellie B aka Dogamous Pyle didn’t mind resting on top.

But our recent trip to the big furniture chain’s clearance center yielded a pair of reputable maker’s twin size mattresses, delivered in the same truck as the new microfiber-covered chair.

Separated the box springs are.

The old chair and new mattresses look good together.

Come on over.

The spread was in a closet. A new purchase will come to make it look really nice.

Now if company arrives we really have beds that can be separated or pushed together.

    1. Versatility is important in the guest room, is our guess, Joey. We’ll see, maybe. Ha.

  5. Cool. Next time I come to Syracuse, I know who I can call on! I like the twin beds pushed together, rather than one big bed. It allows for flexibility based on your guests’ needs.

    It all takes time. Once we’re done with the interior painting (if it ever does get done), I’d like to turn one of our extra bedrooms into a guest room. We have the space, it’s just the energy and money we lack at the moment.

      1. The saddest part is, Mark, that my longtime closest childhood friend lives in Liverpool, and I haven’t actually seen her in years, either. We “visit” via Facebook.

      2. You so have to drive east on the Thruway, CM.

      3. I am capable of driving the Thruway, I just prefer not to for local trips. Once past the city lines, I don’t even mind the Thruway that much. I just cruise along at 78 mph and listen to music. Well, at least until I get to Rochester, and the traffic picks up again and I have to slow down. But between Rochester and Syracuse is always a nice ride.
