New TV stand
Jan. 4th, 2014 11:28 pmSince we moved into this house last June, we've had our TV on a small table, with our old printer cart serving to hold the cable box and Blu-Ray player.
( In fact, have a photo. )
I mean, yeah, it worked... but it sort of made us feel like we were back in college. So, today we headed down to Ikea, which was an ordeal in itself... apparently, *everyone* went to Ikea today. Thankfully, we'd already picked out what we wanted so we were able to spend as little time as possible in the crowds... and the folks at Ikea were once again brilliant in packaging, so we were able to fit everything into my car without any real problems (my legroom in the passenger seat was a bit tight).
Anyway,
rackham got it all assembled this evening (I was able to lend an occasional hand, but we only have one impact driver, so it was mostly a one person job) and it's now all set up with everything up and running... and it looks *so* much better!
