The Winner Wasn't The Winner & Cat Pee

So...the couch we bought went back after two full days of trying to sit on it.
WHY you ask?
Because as pretty as it was to look at it, it was like trying to get comfortable on a 2 x 4.
The back was too low and no matter who much we fluffed the pillows...we just couldn't get them right.

I didn't mind returning it but I did mind paying a 20% restocking fee. Urban Home can kiss my pasty white ass.

Anyhoooooo...I ended up buying the first couch that we had selected. I guess I just like to torture myself and try 15 other ones before I go back to my first choice.

I have no photos of the couch right now because for the last two weeks we have not even been able to enjoy living in this unit thanks to the ongoing battle I like to call, "Cat Urine Eradication from Hell".

New carpet and padding were put down AFTER we had already moved in but they FAILED to clean and/or seal the concrete floors which soaked up all that yummy odor. So after one full week of my bitching and complaining (and calling corporate) they came back and pulled up the carpet, padding, and tack strips, then put down sealant, new tack strips and a second round of new padding & carpet. After another full week of bitching, because the smell was STILL HERE, they finally showed up this morning to prime and paint the offending walls.

FOR FUCKS SAKE I HOPE THIS ENDS THIS BULLSHIT SO I CAN GO BACK TO POSTING THINGS THAT ARE PRETTY!!!!!

And The Winner Is......

Freestyle-Pewter from Urban Home.
YES...the lady in the corporate office is a dumb bitch, but the couch is great and I couldn't resist it any longer.

This couch is soft like a teddy bear and is a bluish-gray color. So darn pretty! None of my artwork matches and I now have to buy all new everything...and I am poor...but who cares. Aren't we all just numbers on the computer of some credit reporting agency anyhow???!!!

We move Saturday and this super soft beauty gets delivered Saturday evening!

FYI, the picture doesn't do this couch justice!
