Finally!



Yes - FINALLY.... we are getting a new couch. We have had the same couch since 2000. It has been a great couch and is great for the role of couch potato. However, it seems to just kind of suck you up in it AND the cushions keep sliding off. People visit and sometimes I think they may stay forever because they can not seem to get off the human eating couch we have. We have been talking about getting a new couch for a while now - but thought we would just hang on to the one we have now. But last Saturday after hours of sitting on different couches in two different stores - we finally found one that we BOTH like. Agreeing on something seemed impossible there for a while. But we both thought this one was comfy. Of course, maybe we thought it was comfy because we were tired from shopping... who knows. But this is the one that has been ordered and it should be at our house in a few weeks - they said 4 weeks and that was on Saturday. It has a recliner in the middle and one on each end. At first I did not like this "semi theatre style" - but I laid on the couch in the store and could curl right up in Chris' lap on the love seat portion. The bad thing is that our newest little kitty, Pauper, has started to scratch the furniture. She has only done this about 4 times so far - but only once on the leather will ruin it. We have armed ourselves with a small arsenal of water guns - so we are hoping that we can "train" her before the arrival of the new couch.

By the way - if anyone is interested in a human eating sofa and chaise - let me know :)
