The carpet cleaning occurred yesterday. I managed to sweet talk the carpet cleaning guy into doing a room for free. Then I received an e-mail about them voiding my credit card purchase. It's unclear, but they either voided $50 of the purchase or they voided all but $50 of the purchase. Of course, I'm hoping for the latter, but either way, I'm pretty excited about the sweet deal. I'll just have to wait to see my credit card statement when it comes in next month. I used a company called Zerorez (heated water no chemicals, except on the puppy pee spots), and I think they did a pretty good job.
The couch was delivered this morning. One of the throw pillows had a flaw in the fabric and I had to go back to the store and exchange it out for a display pillow, but other than that, I think it looks great.
Have a look...
It's longer than my old couch, which is great because I can lay completely out and there is still room for Lola at the end!
Here's a look at the living room with the new couch and chair:
Another viewpoint...
Since the couch is a different size, I had to move the coffee table. The table is crazy heavy and has left indentions in the carpet. I've heard that if you put ice in the craters, they will help raise the carpet. So I'm trying it out...
My plan has a fatal flaw. Don't you hate it when that happens! What's the flaw?
LOLA! Lo loves ice and it is really the one "treat" she is still allowed by Dr. Joe. I gave her a piece when I was getting my ice out of the ice box, but she wasn't satisfied with that. Once she finished her piece, she went and stole a piece that was "working" for me. She stole 3 additional pieces before she got tired of ice, or her mouth froze up, I'm not sure which!

Love the new couch!! Looks great!
LOL at the picture of Lola "smiling" like Baxter was--too funny.
Jen Lancaster's books are HILARIOUS! My favorite is her first one "Bitter is the New Black". It's a great "light" read.
