2. Thursday was a day. We picked up Emma's bed and bedframe. Turns out the bedframe is not functional without a headboard. We had intended to wait until we get paid to buy her one but drove into town (45 min drive) to get the headboard. We get the headboard home, and there's a defect in the way they drilled the holes; the bolts provided won't fit. Josh went to the hardware store and attempted to find bolts to fit with no luck. He took it back to town; the store let him open another one to see if it was functional; it also had the defect, so we returned it. By this time, the local store that sold us the bedframe is closed. Emma slept on the boxsprings and mattress. Fortunately, yesterday, they exchanged the bedframe they sold us for one that functions without a headboard. During the whole headboard debacle, Josh's phone went wonky, and it looked like we'd have to buy a new one before we even finished paying for this one. *headdesk* But once it ran out of power, he was able to turn it back on, and it seemed fine. So, extremely trying day in which everything worked out in the end. LOL
So the takeaway here is gratitude on my part (thank you, universe) and also, don't buy headboards at At Home.
