I love to buy used furniture and make it my own. The personlizing makes it feel more like mine. Yet I sit here at my sisters house for the night and have no comforts of home with me. Why you ask? Because I bought this beautiful pub table with 4 faux leather high chairs, did I mention it was beautiful and I only payed $30 for it. Well I just couldnt wait to put it in the kitchen, so right in it went. I washed it clean and scrubbed the gunk off, even the legs and sides real good with cleaner. This would prove to be no help the next night as we found a nasty cockroach in the kitchen...... yes you read that right a damn filthy roach. I have never in my life been so sick and since I have some really nasty neighbors living just over an arce away I had assumed with this heat it was just looking for water. Well this wasnt so because, the next night I killed two. Now panic has set in and I do mean panic scared to sleep or even to close my eyes and not just me my 13 yr old daughter refuses to go in her room by herself. We walk around constantly looking and searching and not to mention scared out of our damn minds. So today while the hubs was at work I took it upon myself to buy 4 boxes of bombs and there is 4 in each box (way to many for my small mobile home) but I was playing it safe, after all whats the worst that can happen....lol So here I sit not painting not enjoying my cozy little abode but rather watching old movies with my sister and listening to the men talk about the stupidest shit I have ever heard but enjoying the company anyways.
Stay clean and always look at what you buy from strangers. I knew this was to good to be true.
