Last week Kris and I decided that we have had enough of the couch in our living room. We've been living with it broken for about the last two years, and it just kills your back to sit on it. So yesterday we decided to go looking for a new couch and chair, or a love seat. This is the perfect time too, because in just a couple of weeks, it'll be time to put up the Christmas tree. If we can decide on a new couch, maybe I can move the tree into the front of the room in front of the window.
The problem is that with our room size and the placement of the windows and the traffic patterns in the room, there is not a lot that we can do as far as arrangement. The salesman at the store that we were talking to informed us that he was an architect (who couldn't find a job in his field) so he helped us out with possible arrangements. With that in mind we went browsing and after about 30-40 minutes we had a couple of styles sort of picked out, but nothing that we loved. Then just as we were about to go home and give it some thought, we saw one style that looked pretty good. I wasn't wild about it at first but as we were talking about it with the salesman it started to grow on me. After about 10 minutes I thought that it would probably work as far as the colors went, it was just a matter of being able to fit it into the space. Kris took a picture of the description on her phone so we had all the dimensions and when we got home I tried sketching things out on my computer to see if we would be able to arrange things in the room.
The salesman told us about a sale they are going to be having coming up that was even better than the promotion they were running this past week. We still have to discuss things a little bit, but we may end up going back this week to order something.
