Last week, a new sofa and a new dining table arrived. I like to think I am past the need for things, but that's a joke. I have gotten so much satisfaction from the new furniture. I sit and stare at it and run my hand on the smooth, perfect walnut table top and hum quietly to myself. If I'm humming, I'm pleased. Mmmmm. Life is good in my private little world. Can't wait for the black and white shower curtain to arrive. Shopping by mail is lovely. Christmas every week.
They say to stay alive you need something to look forward to next week, next month and in the next 6 months. With all plans cancelled thanks to COVID, we only have our online purchases to look forward to, I am so forgetful, bu the time the package arrives, I’ve forgotten what I ordered, but then it is always exactly what I wanted. Like, how did they know?
