I love how you took us on the trip of returning - and kept us wondering about the outcome - to the end. In some ways, it was just like IKEA - an experience! drferreriblogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08800953133789773280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2941220820110399901.post-27655071255613771222013-03-30T22:40:00.441-04:002013-03-30T22:40:00.441-04:00This is terrific, b.

I want to tell you that one of the first things the movers asked me when we were discussing what would be moved is if I had any furniture from Ikea. They said they wouldn't cover it for damage, that it was too flimsy & fell apart too easily. Interesting, huh? We just got one of the stores about a year ago, & my daughter & I did spend some time there-amazing place. I literally got lost from her trying to go to the bathroom. I guess I'll stick with my old pieces and some small other purchases. Try estate sales sometimes. I just sold a lot of good pieces in my sale this past January.

In fact, it came out shortly after we purchased our faulty dresser and I chuckled at their descriptions of Ikea products and directions, etc. I completely got it.

Not only with the way you lay the story out (which is exquisite in every words you penned) but also facing the demons and standing up for your rights. I just wish I had a highlighter to mark all my favorite passages, but then it would have colored the whole page. Beautiful! I love this!elsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01348895330633879894noreply@blogger.com
