hatam_soferet | a day of acquiring things

We scored furniture today. W's mum has an acquaintance who likes W, whose sister is going into a home, and her apartment was up for harvesting, so we have scored some gorgeous bookcases, a dining room set, a bunch of nice folding chairs, the old kind that are wood with padded seats but still fold down really small, and a wobbly thing that the plants are going to live on until I find them a real home.

We also picked up the miscellaneous Judaica. Now we have a couple of bashed-up siddurim (dunno why, W likes them), an extra set of tefillin (yay!), and a toy sefer Torah, but it's not your usual toy sefer Torah, it's in a Sephardi-type can, which is just cool cos no-one has one of those.

And I found new shoes, which is an unusual occurrence, and deserving of celebration.

So on the whole, a pleasing day.
