Day 2520 Silver lining.

8th July 2024

Well the good night sleep anticipated didn’t happen, it was dire. Kelli woke after two hours, and then stayed awake for four hours. She managed three more hours only after I moved into the living room and slept on the couch. I’m certainly getting used to it, but at least she wasn’t a grouch in the morning, in fact it was better than I expected.

We had the opportunity to purchase two mid century dressers from someone we sold a pair of side tables to. They got in touch and offered us these wonderful pieces, we’d be mad not to get them.

As we had slept in, we were a bit late collecting them, but boy was it worth it.

There is an active market for mid century furniture even if they are unbranded, and we have had success with many that we’ve worked on.

We could wait to get them home and start work on them. What was the amazing part is their condition, sure there were a few scratches on the top, but the rest was immaculate. We both spent the rest of the day cleaning and doing some minor repairs, and then took pictures.

Kelli posted them on Marketplace in the evening and they were snapped up even at the price we put on them. If we could find some every week there is a good chance to make some decent cash on them.
