As most of you know, daddy spent a lot of time building our house in New Mexico. Momma, Simba, Bay-Ling, Arleenton, Coco and I stayed behind in California while daddy worked daily to get the house built. We all moved to New Mexico before the house was completed and stayed in that nasty, small, leaking trailer that daddy had been living in.
Simba, my kitty furbrother.
Bay-Ling my kitty frusister who is now an angel.
Coco Rose and Arleenton, both at the Rainbow Bridge probably playing tag together.
Anyhow, on the last load of stuff to be taken from California to New Mexico was a pitiful sofa and love seat. The sofa was damaged by Bay-Ling as she apparently thought it was a wonderful scratching post and one of the springs was broken. Momma tried to convince daddy to take this furniture to the dump but he refused saying he could fix the spring and momma could fix the cat damage so it was loaded up in the moving truck and hauled to New Mexico.
That furniture sat in the garage/warehouse for almost two years. Yup, we didn't have any furniture in the living room except for the queen sized bed that daddy put in there so we could move out of the trailer and into the house before the house was completed.
So today, daddy got up early and loaded the old furniture into the hauling trailer and took it to the garbage transfer station - BOL, BOL. Momma was almost as excited as she was when we moved out of the nasty trailer.
Our living room now has a new sofa, love seat and chair, plus some nice tables and lamps. To complete the room, daddy bought some rugs which I promptly christened one with some piddle - BOL, BOL. Daddy is threatening to have me put back into wee-wee wraps, but this far, I have managed to escape that.
Crikey .... how good does that look?? No wonder your Mom's excited. We've got boxes of stuff in our garage that have been there for 15 years from Mum and Dad's house moves. They've never been touched or looked at for all those years but they are still there. Crikey Peeps are funny aye?? Well done for christening the rug!! There'll be lots more of that happening when your new sister arrives, aye??
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for Mei-Ling to arrive because then they won't know it was me who piddled as long as I remind myself NOT to drop my stuffie in the piddle that is - BOL.
Delete15 years of holding onto "stuff" - WOW! Maybe it's about time for someone to open those boxes and look to see if anything is actually worth any thing and then get rid of everything that has no value money or emotionally - you think?
Crikey Puffy ..... Not much in those boxes mate. Lots of nostalgia but little else. NOTHING valuable!! Just stuff!! You are right. Time to chuck the lot. Probably best if they don't open them first.
DeleteNot long now and Mei-Ling will be with you and giving that rug what for, aye??
Da new furniture looks pawsome! Have ya climbed up on da couch yet??
ReplyDeleteDaddy already had to repair a small puncture in the sofa from cat or dog nails - I think it was Simba's fault!!!!
DeleteGood job on the rug!
ReplyDeleteAn the new stuff looks great!
Thank you Zoe. Momma wanted daddy to buy jute rugs because they can easily be washed in the washing machine and don't fall apart. Too bad he chose to ignore that request and bought the other rugs instead - BOL,
DeleteONE MUST put one's SCENT on the new stuffs... to make it HOME LIKE. RIGHT?
ReplyDeleteIt looks very comfy and cozy now.
Your 100% correct! The chair across from the love seat is a recliner/rocker combo that momma says is hers, but of course I get to share it with her. I love to be rocked.
DeleteBOL! You christened that rug. Only proper you know, makes it offursial!!
ReplyDeleteGreat looking livingroom!
I was doing good until NOTME arrived and of course I got blamed. Why don't the humans ever question Simba?
DeleteYour living room looks great! Mommy is jealous because she wants new living room furniture too.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jelly. Momma is hoping this set of furniture lasts longer than the last set but one never knows...We don't actually spend much time in the living room so it is mostly for when family or guests come over.
ReplyDeleteWhut a gwate-wookin' woom! A pup...Oooops, I meen NotMe...habs no choice bud tu chwisten a nu wug! Wite, pupses??? BOL :D
ReplyDeleteThanks Z-pup! We currently have company over and momma is hovering around me like you wouldn't believe saying YOU BETTER NOT PEE ON MY RUGS! Sheesh, I would like a bit of privacy so I can do my business - BOL.
ReplyDeleteThe new furniture looks very nice. Imagine NOT ME doing that to the new carpet, BOL!
