The Big Brown Monster is Gone

              Hi there!  Grab a cup of coffee and let's chat a while......


Have you ever gone shopping for furniture and wound up with
 something you can't believe you bought?

Well, we did just that about a year ago -
went looking for a new dining room set and
found this on the show room floor for less than half price...



So large it takes two pics to get a shot of it......

This baby is huge!

But, in its defense it is sooooo comfy, I'm talking man, you can
doze right off on it.

When I worked nights I even slept on it a few times....
That's just how comfy it is.

But, there is only one way it can go and if your room is not
oriented the right way - it ain't gonna fit
no matter how hard you try...
Almost like it has a mind of its own.

Now mind you we all loved it-

(Miss A)

For napping.........

(Miss K)
For reading......

(young Mr.C)

and for playing computer games...
It was the bomb for doing all those things and watching movies....
We all fit on it at once.

But, we are moving and the time had come for this monster to move on to a
loving home.



         And so she got a vacuuming, a bath, and a febreezing and was listed on Craigslist.....

                                               She went to her new home yesterday
                                             Her new owners were ecstatic to get her.

                                                          And now ......


                                                         This is what we are using -
                                                  our patio furniture - thank goodness it's comfy also.....

                                                        

                                    Not too purdy but it will do until
                                               we can find what we want for the new house.......

                   Have you ever fell in love with something in the furniture store and
                        when you got it home it just wasn't what you had expected
                                                     it to be or look like?
                                         Or it just doesn't fit your space but,
                                           you can't return it because it was
                                                              "On Sale"?

                     Things always look different in the store, lol....
                                                        hopefully, I do a better job this time around......

                        It was nice chatting - gotta go finish the laundry - have a great evening
                                               See ya tomorrow......
