We Reach A Decision

On Monday we went to visit our preferred choice of loft company at their current job. From what we could see it is excellent. Speaking to the owner of the house, she was very pleased with them. We then went to see the man's own loft conversion that he did to his house some years ago. Again, brilliant and those little extra touches that others would want extra money for, he does as standard (an example being swivel spot lights in the ceilings). David parted with the deposit money there and then and we are now booked in for sometime in December. If it gets a bit close to Christmas though, they'll start in the new year. Can't wait!
Of course, now I just want to get on and get things sorted. Currently we have a futon bed, very low to the ground and therefore no storage underneath. We decided that as we will need all the storage we can get, we would have to buy a divan bed with four drawers, hopefully off ebay and not spend too much. Well, as luck would have it, yesterday one came up on freecycle. Only 1 year old and they would throw in a headboard too! Spookily it was the headboard that I was eyeing up in Argos. I whacked an email off straight away and we got it! David picked it up last night and we had spent our first night on it. Will need single beds for the girls and again, as luck would have it, 2 came up on freecycle and we collect them on Saturday! Let's hope everything will be as easy as this.
