MY MIRROR STORY

I took the picture of this oval mirror at night so it didn't turn out as well as if I had taken it during the day. You will notice this mirror is over my dresser. This is a rectangular mirror over the same dresser. You want to know why? Story follows below.

I have two new night stands by my bed. They match my bed much better. The color is Black/Brown, which seems a very popular color at this time.

Below is a nice end table that Donna had in the second bedroom downstairs. We are in the process of fixing up the second bedroom. I put the end table out in the front room and bought a small touch-on lamp at Wal-Mart and a nice candle to decorate it. I love touch-on lamps.

The mirror story--- I wanted a mirror to go over my dresser. Donna and I went to Home Depot and I picked out this very nice rectangular mirror. When we got the mirror home, there were small streaks in the mirror that just would not come off. It seemed to be a defect in the glass. Today we took the mirror back to Home Depot. We went back to the mirror section and there were two more of the same mirror and they too had streaks that would not come out.
I decided to get the oval mirror. It has the same design around the edge. The glass in the mirror was fine. The glass in the oval mirror was much clearer than the glass in the rectangular mirror was. I liked the rectangular shape a little better but I could not stand to have flaws in the mirror.
In the near future there will be another change downstairs. We are getting carpet in both bedrooms. We have the estimate already. Tuesday we will have Home Depot carpet workers come out and measure.
After the carpeting is in, I am going to buy a new dresser and a new chest of drawers for my room in the Black/Brown color. Donna wants the dresser that is in my room now to go into the second bedroom.
