furniture

In my current home, I have $60 worth of furniture. Most of what I have, I got for free. Nearly everything is second-hand.

Side note: My couch had another, larger, matching couch that couldn't fit through the door. We donated it to the house across the street. That house blew up and burned down. It was a meth lab.

In my childhood home, we didn't have enough chairs in the kitchen for everyone. If the entire family happened to be home for dinner, I had to go searching for something to sit on. Some random stool. I sometimes ended up sitting on a piano bench, with my brother.

We had enough seats in the dinning room. But, no. The dinning room was for *special occasions*.
