the dumbest couch in the whole, entire universe

we have a couch.

a wonderful couch.

a pretty new, greenish, long, nice big couch.

a couch that we can both lay on, together and feel great.

a couch who's cushions don't move all over the place.

a couch that isn't ugly.

it's down right pretty.

i love our couch. there's just one problem...

that couch is in san angelo.

the couch that i sit on everyday is the dumbest couch in the whole, entire universe.

this is michael's old couch. when he got it, he got it from a friend. it was old before he even got it. it's one of those couches with the three back pillows semi connected to the couch. it has fluffy arms and 3 cushions on the bottom that move no matter how you sit on them. of course, when the bottoms move, the back cushions slide on down and mess up everything. the couch is a tan color and was torn up by michael's dogs. it's been sitting in my mom's garage for about 2 years for the garage sale. it didn't sale.

this couch didn't even sale at a garage sale.

we decided that since we are leaving most of our stuff at our house in san angelo to help it sell (which apparently isn't working like we had planned), that we would bring this old couch here and just buy a slip cover for it.

we did that.

i hate it.

i think at least 3 times a day i say, "i hate this couch. ggrrr. this is the dumbest couch in the whole, entire universe!"

if for no other reason than having a nice couch to sit on everyday, i'm ready for our house to sell.

i hope you never see anything this embarrassing in my house again...

the dumbest couch in the whole entire universe:

i promise, this happens so fast. it takes so much energy to make it look nice, and then a sit or two later and it looks like this. can you imagine how much this annoys someone like me?

ps-i think i misused the word "sell" sale" about a million times. i have no idea which i'm supposed to use where. sorry to all of you english people! you can let me know, if you wish!

i thought for a second that you were describing our couch! LOL. and slip covers are the most non-user friendly things ever. i haven't learned to get one on a couch yet and make it look like the picture on the package.

so when you're done with the couch, can I have it? hehehe
(no - not really.)
It was reverse therapy. Sometimes if someone wants something of yours, you want it more...
Just trying to help.
I wish someone would start wanting my thighs... and mushy tummy...and stretch marks... okay - totally off point... sorry...

It looks really comfortable. Just think how much you will appreciate your new stuff once you get it. :)

Lord please bring buyers for KJ's home. I pray that the Kotze's would have favor, and that their home would sell quickly.
