When we left off were were about to step inside. Inside the upside down house. The upside down, inside out mess of a house. I think it all started with those darn coffee tables. I still have three coffee tables in my living room, having no luck with craigslist and no room in my garage. Don't believe me?
Three coffee tables in my living room. Three coffee tables, one couch and a two sections of an IKEA sectional. You see, I found a great deal on part of this sectional. The very one I've been dreaming of. The very one I was going to find a way to make mine. Here's the deal, the seller wanted to keep the sofa portion and the arms. In order to complete the sectional, I need to purchase the sofa. Doing it this way would save me over $200.00. Since the pieces are nearly new (just purchased in February) I decided to go for it. Now, until I can sell my couches to get the money for the sofa I have two couches and two sections of a sectional and three coffee tables in my living room. Correction, one of the two couches is in my dining room, the rest was correct. Plus two chairs, several miscellaneous tables and shelves and an array of toddler paraphernalia.
There's more, we'll continue tomorrow. Same Bat-time, same Bat-channel. (remember that?)
Good luck with selling stuff so you can have a complete sectional. I know you will be able to do it....it just may take time....and yes, i do remember the "same bat channel and same bat time." LOL, that was many moons ago.

Yes! I do remember that! Adam West rules! :)
Good luck with restoring order to your world. Keep your eye on the prize and just think about how much fun you'll have arranging and rearranging all your new stuff. And the living room will feel cavernous!!

Weeellll....your living room and my entire house could be friends. They must be channeling each other. When hubby called today, he asked rather non-chalantly, "can we walk in the house today?"
So yeah, I'm of no help to ya :)

Your home looks like mine.. minus the coffee tables. When I can't seem to sell things on craigslist I just donate or trash. It would be nice to have the extra cash, etc but if it is causing enough of a headache, it will good just to get rid of it. Just my two cents. Best of luck!
