Ups and Down of Our Home

I have been wanting new couches for a while. Our old ones weren't really bad... but not really in-style any more. And with the the red and green plaid fabric it always felt a little like Christmas (especially since the outside of our apartment is green and the shutters have Christmas trees on them).

The Old Couch

Harris and I would occasionally look at couches online but we never found any thing we really liked; until Thursday. I think spring made everyone in the mood to get new couches because there were a lot that we liked. We decided on our favorite and set up a time to go look at it. We wanted my dad to help us get them with his truck, but he was out of town. So it was up to us; some how we managed to put a couch, love-seat, and ottoman, in a Ford Ranger.

Harris' friend came over to help move out the old couches and bring in the new ones. As soon as the couches were in, he brought in a lot of his things to store at our house. (He had to be out of his apartment on Thursday and can't move into his new apartment until today.) I am excited for his things to be gone so I can see what our living room will look like with the new couches. Even though we have a lot of extra things I have enjoyed sitting on my one little couch cushion, it is very comfy!

Saturday I made pillows for our couches! I am so excited about how our living room is looking. Now I just need to replace our baby blue curtains. But I haven't decided what color yet, but I do know they will not be baby blue.

Last night I was getting my beauty sleep when all of a sudden there was a loud crash. It startled me awake and I quickly realized what happened. Our closet rod had fallen down! I guess there were one too many shirts on it. Our clothes are still on the bottom of our closet. Waiting for us to fix it. But it will require a trip to the hardware store, and I don't have the car today.
