The Sofa, and then some
Well, we finally got to go sofa hunting Saturday. We went every place we could within a 30 mile radius. I will now be very impatient for the end of this month to get here. We ended up buying a sofa, sofa table, and a coffee table. And hopefully after Christmas we can get a bigger TV and the entertainment center that matches the rest of it. We bought from Bassett. I have never purchased anything from them before. I am keeping fingers crossed that they are not like Levitt’s or any of the other cheap furniture chains.They didn’t appear to be.
We looked at many different styles. We went out with the intention of getting something in leather. And we found the perfect one in a leather specialty store, but it was about $2000 more than we wanted to pay. Angus was very good about the whole thing, not one complaint. He actually spotted the sofa we ended up getting. It’s a Mission style Sofa. I have always loved Mission furniture. My dream home is a Frank Lloyd Wright style house by the beach. Give me that and I will be a very happy woman!
Oh, the customers that I got up at 4 AM for, they changed their freaking minds and went in later in the day to change what they bought. After Angus left. So all that and he gets a small kick back of the commission. I have a good mind to call that lady and tell her I WANT MY BOW BACK!
Sunday I was treated with Champagne in bed and then Angus took us all out to brunch. It was the first time the whole family has gone someplace together in almost a year I believe. And then Angus did some unpacking and organized our closet a little more. And to show my appreciation for the extra furniture (that I really wasn’t expecting) the champagne in bed, and the brunch....... I bought some Maine Lobsters and clams and cooked him a real New England Lobster Dinner. What a way to end what turned out to be a very nice weekend.

PS. I got my girly nails back today...... and pretties on my toes too!
