The Quest for Living Room Furniture

The Quest has ended... at least for now. We ordered some furniture yesterday. It should take about 4 to 6 weeks for it to arrive in Milwaukee and then it will be delivered here. So it might be here in time for Thanksgiving, we'll have to see.

Sometimes I can get a short-fused, especially in a major purchase situation. Things worked out the way that we expected them to. But I had to reel myself in. I was a little embarassed about how I acted. But if you say one thing and then it's another and it happens twice, you could see why I got a little hot. But like I say, they made it right, so I feel okay.

We were going to go golfing today, but then again we just bought furniture yesterday. Payments don't start until it arrives but we had to put quite a bit of money down. Maybe we should have gone. Maybe we could still go today, late in the afternoon when it is a bit cheaper.

So the lesson learned here is that some folks cannot worry about furniture, let alone furniture that they really, really want. We are able to right now. Not that we didn't take advantage of the free financing. We did. But then we will own it. Nice.
