a couch

I went to the furniture store thinking I might buy an overstuffed chair to sit and knit or sit and read or sit and contemplate the internet. I didn't realize that an overstuffed chair might cost the same as a couch! ...so I wandered the store until I saw this:


I just love the wood, and the oak leaf pattern and I didn't even sit on it until they delivered it! I spent a load of money on something I think is pretty, so unlike my pragmatic miserly self.

A friend said he believes that if a person has the right couch, the rest will fall in to place. It makes a house homey. I hope this is that couch. (I think it might be)


The reality of the couch...

That's really attractive! And the dog thinks it's comfortable, I see. I like the fishing floats in the window, very pretty....

I got the floats last year in Homer, they're much more common out on the ocean coast than inland waters.

Yeah...dog is very happy.

I too love the leaf pattern and it goes with your rug!! I would say that's the right couch because things are already falling into place, the dog seems to love it.

She's so happy to have a couch again! I tried to sleep on it last night, but felt guilty because she was on the floor and wouldn't go to her own bed.

Hmmmm, it seems the couch in my house has a similar reality. Love the new coach. The color is gorgeous, a beautiful green to remind you of nature when its covered in snow in the background. Hug the Hoop for me!
