I was very excited about getting them in. My apartment feels so homey now!! I didn't really get to enjoy them much today, because I had to work late. Then Karen and Collin got some friends together to talk about their great news over supper. Their engagement. It was lots of fun, and I was excited about seeing the ring in person.

After supper Karen, Collin, and my sister came over to look at my new furniture! I had a little cheesecake left and served that for dessert. By the time they left it was just about time for bed. I was able to sit on my couches for a little while though and it was wonderful!!

Rainy Monday!

Today was a long rainy day. I worked from 7:30 a.m. until almost 5:30 p.m... without a lunch break! And it's probably not going to slow down anytime soon. But I am thankful to still have a job!! Yea!

After work I went home to try to get some boxes unpacked and to clear off a spot for my new couches!!! Will post pictures tomorrow!

Not ready for the weekend to be over... This week is going to be rough!!

I Found It!!

Today I decided to go ahead and go to Miskelly's Furniture... I was a little reluctant to go there because I knew the prices were going to be outrageous. But I ended up finding a sofa and loveseat for a really great price!! I was a little nervous about it, because this is the biggest furniture purchase I've ever made. And it didn't help my nerves any when I was trying to do the paper work for the 12 months no interest plan. The lady who helped me, ran my credit and it came back with an application pending status. So we had to go the the financing desk and wait for a confirmation fax. This was supposed to only take 5 minutes, but it turned into almost 30 minutes of waiting. But in the end it all turned out fine and I was approved.

I will get them on Tuesday and I can hardly wait!! Yea! Even though I've only been there a week, I'm tired of walking into a bare room and sitting on the floor to watch the t.v. Here they are:

Friday Night!

And the quest for the perfect couch continues...  This afternoon I went to the Ashley Furniture Store.  I had high hopes that today would be the day that I found a couch I liked.  I found two sets I really like!

Couch 2

So, I was very excited to not only find a set I liked but two!! Couch #1 was very cute and comfortable, but in the end, I decided that I might get tired of the baby blue. Couch #2 was the one I was leaning towards. It looked really nice and it was on super super sale... I got my hopes all up about getting this couch. I was waiting for the sales man to see if they had them in stock, only to find out they didn't have the loveseat in stock anymore. The floor model was the only one they had. The sales man and I looked over the couch and saw nothing wrong with it, but I didn't feel very good about buying it at the price they wanted. (Even though it was on super sale.) So I tried to bargain with him, and see if they could take anymore off the price, only to get a no :( I was pretty bummed, but decided in the end to leave the store. He gave me his card and a ticket with information about the couch, in case I decided to come back, but I'm thinking it's still going to be a no. I just can't pay the price they want for a couch that had been sitting in the store and sat on by so many people.

So the quest continues...
