I dreamed a dream in time gone by
When walls were blank
And beds were frameless
I dreamed of rooms that induced sighs
I dreamed my Love would sing Thanksgivings…
But I was young and so naïve
And dreams were made and used and wasted
There was no budget to be paid
No work to earn what it would take
But the mind it spins at night
With its wheels softly turning
And as it tears your hope apart
And it rocks your dreams awake
I had a dream my room would be
So different from this room I sleep in
So different now from what I see
But life has changed the dream I dream…
So, O.k. That musical rendition all just to say…
Yup, I thought I’d have a lovely upholstered headboard kinda like this one:
with awesome fabric like this one…
Oh, but NO! I had to be all, like, I’ve gotta get creative up in he-ya and it’s gotta be budget friendly and I should recycle something. Yeah, that’d be super cool…
And this is what I end up with…
Which I guess, isn’t the worst thing evah…but it’s a far cry from what was playin’ in this noggin up he-yah…
The first night it was in the house, Morgan laid there, and as I asked him what he thought, he said,
“It’s amazing, my love. Everything I have always dreamed of in a headboard. The room is smashing. Your so talented.”
And I rolled over and gave him a big wet sloppy kiss…
Ahem…
No. He didn’t really say that.
He said, “Ummm….I just don’t understand it…”
And I rolled over and gave him the cold shoulder…
Have this ever happened to you? Have you started out with a vision and then out of necessity been driven in a completely different direction?
Please tell me I’ma not alone…
Cuz no one is alone…
Look into the light now…
Sorry, Broadway’s on my mind for some reason.
UPDATE: THE TRUSS IS GONE. YES. I couldn’t take it anymore and I hacked it up and sent it on it’s way! Here’s a sneako-peako of the new Master Design.
