   My 1st guess was piano, then a window. Since those are taken, along with a kitchen sink, I will guess something that is really needed…. a box of money!!

   Since this is a family friendly blog, I’ll just say Justin Timberlake and Andy Samburg are extremely envious.

   😮 It’s … it’s a man – I see him! His head has popped up, just outside his shipping crate. He has glasses (smart) and he seems fairly tall-ish.
   I’d love to know where you go shopping, Ross. 😋

      Ooh. Right after the piano from IKEA, this is my favorite guess! I hope that’s correct.

    How about the marble slabs for under the sink or toilet ??

    I think I need to also guess window given the look of that crate. Perhaps the very last window? I hope you won’t keep us in suspense too long!

    Please tell me it’s the missing curved window glass! I’ve been waiting on that for years.

    It’s your custom made mattress !!

      This was my first thought–a mattress or box spring for the octagon bedroom–but I think the curved glass window is the real answer!

    The big curved glass window!

    The suspense! A load of that extremely cool wallpaper? But I think you said that was only needed for one wall…

    I’m going with a man with his head popped out!

    I immediately pictured a waterfall of jelly beans cascading down the stairs!
