Bobs Furniture = excitement galore!

I ended up at the emergency room with a friend last night and got to thinking about people who work nights.  My friend told me her dad worked the 12:00 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. shift unloading trucks for the post office for 41 years and though long retired stills sleeps during the day and is up most of the night.

Thankfully, we were on our way by 10:15 p.m. and I was home and in bed by 11:15 p.m. (which is very late for me – I’m often in bed by 9:30 p.m. – is that embarrassing to admit?  In my defense I am up by 6:00 a.m.!).

Have you ever been up and out at a time you normally aren’t and are sorta surprised there are people driving around and all sorts of living is going on?  I’m not naïve enough to think everything comes to a stand still when I put my pjs on – but I like to think I’m not missing too much!

Ah, there’s the real issue – fear that I’m missing something.  I’ve always wanted to be part of whatever action is going on.  No children’s table for me – I wanted to be at the adult table since I just knew they were having more fun (and I a little bit suspected better food).  There are several black and white photos of me looking grumpy while sitting at the kids’ table.  Same mop of wild curly hair, same freckled face but with a scowl on it that I hope none of you have ever seen (well, my mother reads my blog – and I know she’s seen it.  Oh, and two of my sisters read it – and I’m sure they’re fairly familiar with my crabby face.  And my daughter probably knows too – okay a bunch of you know exactly what I’m talking about!).

Lucky for you no crabby face today!  I’m thrilled and excited about all the amazing furniture we currently have in the store!  Remember we’re open today (Friday) from 1 to 8 and tomorrow (Saturday) from 9 to 4.  Let’s take a look at some of our inventory:
