I need new furniture for almost every room.
This furniture isn't even fit for someone who rides a broom.
Some of it-good stuff- built with Dave's 2 hands.
The rest....well, let's say I'd love to blast it out of this land.
The couch...oh my...she is such a sad sad sight.
She stood up to 2 bouncing boys and put up a good fight.
Her skin started to give way.
I caught Colin eating her "fluff" the other day.
So, cover her we did.
Until that cover slid.
And then the springs gave way.
And made a hole so big- the boys hide-and-seek- in her can play.
And the chair...don't allow me to start.
Smells of a permanent fart.
Straight? No, no, diagonal she'll rock.
And the fact that there's Sharpie on her shouldn't come as any shock.
Oh...and end tables...I'd love love love
We using that thing pictured above.
What is that? You ask...
Well, it used to have a task
Printer stand, end table, nightstand and more...
Now, no task for it and looking at it is almost a chore.
So, the other day, to the computer I look
To see the "new furniture budget" and when I did, I shook
In laughter, because you see
The budget was a whopping FORTY.

Let me know if this works with your hubby! ;)
Oh man! Good luck to you on this! Hopefully you'll get lots of nice new things! :)
I feel for you! I've been married for almost 17 years and just got my first new sofa and chairs set for the living room. Before that we had many "precious" hand-me-downs. There have been the avacado and gold paisley beauty, and orange thing that wouldn't die, and most recently the beige velour with stamped wheat pattern in it. I told my friend Michelle that it was so old that pretty soon it was going to come back in style. She looked at me, put her hand on my shoulder and said, "Honey, THAT will never come back in style." She was right.
I hope your husband takes the hint.
