We arrived to Ankara by bus this morning and took a taxi back to our place. Tolga washed the clothes, I swept and mopped our empty living room because today our furniture was coming.
We were both pretty excited, but exhausted, and so we napped before they came. They delivered a big console, buffet, table with six chairs, L-shaped couch, coffee table and sitting chair. It was enough to fill the entire living room. We had ordered the fabric types and colors and while some of the pillows will be changed and there were a few flaws here and there, we were both happy with our new living room. It's very modern furniture with sleek lines. I had wanted old, country style furniture but when we were looking at store after store, a options were limited to modern style. As one store owner said, "You don't want old wood, it creaks."
The couch has a cream color base which I wasn't thrilled about too, and said we'd have to paint the living room. Our friend that was helping us said, "Why?" I said, 'To make it more cozy." Both Tolga and Gulbin looked at me, not understanding the word cozy.
Tolga and I moved the furniture around several times, and we have it now set up how we like - except we can't figure out where to put the TV. Tolga thinks we better leave it in our bedroom. . .
We still ate our dinner in the kitchen. I don't think we were ready to moved into the living room.
