How Furniture can make a girl ecstatic.....

The furniture in question is the couch.. yeah it looks good but its squishy...

So to share a lil backstory...
This blogger has been busted up in the past year. BUSTED I tell you.
I did a SINGLE Zumba class last year and could barely walk for weeks!
I blame Wegmans.. I mean its not ACTUALLY they're fault, but my many years of being a cashier and making back bending and lifting decisions (not using my knees or legs but my back,,, dumb!))

ANYWHATs....
So I have learned in the past year that I need to be very careful and aware of the chairs that I choose and I need a strong back support. I can't sit in beanbag chairs or chairs with a low back cushion or weak cushion.

Our current couch is a borrow from my parents and the cushions have a lot to be desired. Ergo-- D cannot sit in that chair at all without days or hours of pain.

So I've been on the hunt for a new couch. We would like our home to be a place where everyone can sit comfortably and relax. I'm not the only one in my family with back problems and it always makes me feel horrible when someone has to pull a chair from the kitchen because all the rest of the chairs are not 'safe'..I mean the same applies to me but being a good hostess and being kind to those who come visit is very important.

So we hunted. Kevin and I sat in hundreds of chairs. HUNDREDS people. We have quite a few furniture stores nearby and we found one we loved, made locally but slightly more than we could afford at that time. I kept going back month after month to sit in it and kinda hope there would be a great sale. And we were wedding planning so the budget was tight!

I may have caused a bankrupcy (gross exaggeration!)...
Because the company that makes this beautiful local furniture is actually going thru a Bankrupcy right now (which is awful!), and so they've sliced their prices and when I went in today,,my couch-to-be was sitting there waiting for me.. One sit , a quick confirmation convo with the hubby and I was sold!! FINALLY.. The waiting and patience and savings paid off and we're going to have this awesome piece of furniture (our first furniture purchase together!) IN OUR HOME!!!

YEAH I'M CLEARLY STOKED...
AND THE TWO SIDES RECLINE!! LOVE LOVE....

but what do you think???
