Please No!



Please don't let a craigslist stranger come and take away my couch.



The best part is when they showed up Sunshine barked so assertively that they said "We can wait out here... We don't have to come inside"  She tried hard to scare them off!

It's here!



The kitchen hutch is growing on me! I'm glad the microwave does fit. We plan to put the pots and pans on top so that will free up two whole cabinets for more food storage! Means I can fit even more food in the pantry. Hello Coupons!



The coffee table. I already remembered why I didn't have one before... Sunshine;s tail already sent things flying. She was so suprised and confused as to why things were falling behind her!



One of the end tables. The glass sticks out about 4.5 inches too far for the door to open. This love seat is a lot bigger than the other one. Hoping we can find some place local to cut the glass on one side. Or we will have to custom order another pane.



2nd end table and one of the lamps. The second lamp will sit on the other end table once we have the glass figures out.



Love seat and pillows. Both of them came with pillows! Such a bargain.



Lastly, the sofa and pillows. BF just uttered the most amazing words "Ok so maybe the red doesn't look bad in here" He was dead set against this color. I think it brightens up the room nicely.

You've been watching too many movies

If you think your car can fit under a truck! Attention drivers, 18 wheelers swing wide for right turns. No you cannot race them and win. Your are smaller. You will lose. I will laugh and take pictures as we drive by.





We love Xmas clearance

These huge candy cane shaped raw hides were on sale for $1.99 at Giant. A perfect impulse buy to our grocery shopping.







Rainy had a blast with hers











It was the best thing ever!







Sunshine was not impressed.



"I'm just going to cuddle with mine"



"Yup! I'm holding out for something bigger, like a pig ear!"

Busy day!

We have someone coming to pick up the green plaid couches and the wooden end table tonight. So we have to live without furniture for a couple days before the new couches arrive. Still so excited for my matching furniture!

Then I made the decision yesterday that there is just no room for an extra couch in the bedroom! It's too claustrophobic up there. We need more open space to make the room not look as tiny as it is.

I hope Sunshine enjoyed sleeping on it last night because it will be her last time. I listed it on craigslist for free and someone is coming tonight to come and grab it. Rainy will be happy since she won't have to jump over the couch to get to her futon bed.

Hoping to replace the couch with a few more stacked futon mattresses. Sunshine will be sad and I'm starting to feel very guilty. Which makes no sense since logically I know the dog does not need her own couch in the bedroom... but I feel bad!
