Dear Overstock.com, You’re right. I am all about the O.

September 30, 2008 1 Comment

Hooray! My chairs arrived this morning.

(Well 6 out of 8 anyway.)

They are darker than I thought they’d be, but I think that actually works out a bit better as far as practicality.

Ten reasons to use Scotchguard:
1. Conner
2. Grant
3. Conner
4. Mitchell
5. Conner
6. Conner
7. Conner
8. Devin
9. Rich
10. Conner

Now I only need to get window treatments, a small buffet, art and a big area rug and we’re all set in this room. Oh. And a new light fixture.

I certainly hope Rich likes them, because I am not returning them. (As his dream clearly foretold.)

***************UPDATE*******************
Rich likes the chairs. We get to keep them without any controversy. Grant still thinks the hydrangea bush grows a head once it’s dark. We had to trim all of the flowers off.
