See the new sofa? Right there next to the desk chair? No? Neither do I. That's because it's not here. It's a fairly long story but there are restrictions on deliveries in condos, ours is 9-5:00 and not one minute after. That was clearly written on the order.
Someone at the delivery department said it wasn't convenient and changed to to 4-8:00. When I called to say it didn't come they said it would be there before 8:00. No, sorry, it won't be allowed in. I had the gate called, the manager called, the elevator padded, and the doorman told. So - I have no sofa. Oh, and the delivery fee for this great service was almost a hundred bucks.
This is what it should look like. I will toss or recover the pillows but the sofa is very plain and it is actually a denim slip cover, washable. And a bed with upgraded mattress and ottoman. So maybe next week, I am working with a nice person now, someone that seems to have a brain so I am hopeful. Stay tuned.
In the meantime all is still well in my world. I got my hour in the pool before the rain came and that was lovely. And today I have canasta. With mostly people I like. (insert smile here).
Oh, and that top photo is old because my tv is on that wall now but you get the idea. Have a great Thursday y'all. I sure will too. Promise.
I ♥♥♥ that orchid art. I have been perusing orchid photos for inspiration to paint one. Did you know I used to have orchids? Not that I am any sort of professional in any way shape or form - I just love them. I had about 4-5 dozen orchids. I had to leave them all with a friend in Florida when I moved because the yard in my house in Georgia was much too sunny for them.
ReplyDeleteAnd my cats kept breaking the bloom spikes on my inside plants. *sigh*
Buggers to no couch because people can't follow simple instructions.
Have yourself a lovely day! And me, too. big hugs xoxo
How frustrating! I hope they get it right the next time. Meanwhile, have a great day!
ReplyDeleteWhy, oh why can't ppl follow instructions?! Sooo frustrating. Good luck.
ReplyDeleteBig hugs, honey...
Humans are screwy at times. Who ever changed the times should be whipped with a wet noodle. I like your pink chair. Have a great day my wonderful friend. I'm leaving to have my colonoscopy right after I send this comment. See ya Bee.

Well bless their hearts. That's why you put special instructions on deliveries. Hello. Just bless their hearts.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day honey. Big hugs to you and my very best to Roche. ♥♥♥
UGH... I've been there with those rules and deliveries. I know how frustrating it is when the shipper doesn't understand that the special instructions are really true. Hope you get it today.
ReplyDeleteBee, I had to back up to see all I have missed in your world. I love that sofa....but the pain of the business people. Hope it comes when you can get it. xoxo,Susie
