Ashley Furniture delivered our new living room furniture yesterday afternoon. Our former couch and loveseat, a matching set from Kittles, were carted away to the Mustard Seed Furniture Bank last Wednesday. After 15 years, there wasn’t much padding left. Not comfortable at all for Sunday afternoon naps, because you could feel the boards down there pressing against your ribs.
We’ve been talking about getting new furniture for several years, but we refuse to go in debt over anything except house and cars (we’ve been paying off our credit cards every month for at least ten years). And there were always costs in line ahead of furniture. Until now.
This white couch, I swear, is the most comfortable couch in known recorded history. Each side has a recliner. When extended, it’s like a bed. You sink into it and want to go to sleep. We sat in a lot of couches in a lot of stores, but none came close to this one comfort-wise. The trick will be keeping Molly from drooling over the white fabric (the only color available).
Fortunately, Molly seems to have taken to the other couch, the brown one.
