Today began in such a promising way. I slept late. Woke up to find I sold few things and had plans to clean and organize because today I was going to get rid of a bookshelf I wasn’t so fond of anymore. This one:
You might remember it from my Halloween Bookshelf Project from two years back:
Anyhoo. Since I live in a studio apartment, in order to get this empty, I had to pile things on my bed, in front of my balcony door, on the floor and on my sewing table. You know, in order to create order, there must be chaos first.
You see where this is going? First I get a message saying they are on their way. Great! Finally! Then 15 minutes later I get another message “oops, it won’t fit into our trailer”. DOOOOOM! I was furious. They asked if they could come next week, and it was quite reasonable request except for this:
And this:
Edited to add: I posted ads on two groups on Facebook AND an online buy/sell-site. The bookshelf was gone in 15 minutes and they are coming to pick it up tomorrow at NOON! My next mission is to sell those birch Agerum- units. But that’s a story for another posting. Nighty night.




I had the same issue the other day! Not an easy task! I feel for you honey!
I can feel your empathy flowing towards Finland.
Awwwwww come on! That is a lovely bookshelf! I would take it!
It’s lovely but not so useful for storing craft stuff.
LOL! I am so sorry about your plight… I sympathize, I do! But your story is told with such a sense of humor! I would have a whopper headache too!

I even had to cancel a date tonight because of this fiasco. What if the guy doesn’t want to see me anymore? I’m going to die alone.
Awwww, man! That’s a bummer… dang girl, you owe that guy a home cooked meal!
