I just spent a lot of money and got myself a pretty large electric fireplace for my living room.
I did this as a holiday gift to myself since I had a lot of extra money to spend thanks to a big year end bonus I got at my job. My electric fireplace is really nice. It looks great where I put it and it almost looks like I have a real fireplace in my house! This is because it came with a logset to go with it. This gives the illusion as if it might be a real authentic fireplace that came with the home. I really don’t have a lot of friends, so it is not like I will be inviting people over to show off my brand new electric fireplace. However, it does not matter. It looks good to me and makes me feel good! Because of this, I decided this past weekend to turn off the phone and not go out to dinner with my one friend like I usually do on a weekend. I wanted to just have some private time with my brand new electric fireplace. I just sat near the electric fireplace and read a book. I also watched some TV with the lights off and just the brand new electric fireplace running. This was a really relaxing evening for me after a long work week. As a matter of fact, I enjoyed it so much, I think I may have to do this during the week to wind down at night! I don’t know why I didn’t think about this before.
