Since adopting my dog, Maggie, my walk-around-the-block
count has gone from zero to a billion in just a few months. This has been great
for my waistline, stress –and apartment; because my garbage finds have gone
from picking up random pieces of furniture my fellow neighbours don’t want to
now picking up the things my ritzy Forest Hill neighbours don’t want—and my
ritzy neighbours have had some good stuff!
Exhibit A: My brass globe lamp that likely spent an evening
outdoors on the curb. Bringing it in was risky, since it probably had water
damage and I’m convinced I could’ve been electrocuted. Thankfully the garbage
gods were on my side, and after dragging it up three flights of stairs and
giving it a few days to ‘dry out’ I plugged the bad-boy in and have been
enjoying it ever since.
My new find increased in personal value when I spotted him
in one of my favourite design sites, Lonny, as a Trend We Love feature.
Also worth mentioning: Those new $19 curtains from Target <3
