At least 15-20 years, sure, but forever ? I've got a 1970s monstrosity in the living room that begs to differ.
So what you are saying is that you and the couch have grown apart and maybe it is time to try living seperate lives?
Or, just that things need to be spiced up and perhaps that cozy ottoman you've had your eye on would be just the thing?
Slip covers, like the micro-skirted nurse's uniforms in the Fredrick's of Hollywood catalogue, a little fantasy dress-up never hurt anyone. Or, well, if it does, that's a whole other category of spicy.
Dh and I have an old futon frame from our early life...and really it is me that has a hard time with commiting to a new couch...
honestly, I think it is the new futon cover. purple, and a little large so it slips on and off so easily...
Ugh, Betsy. That's awful.
And I misspelled her name. Oops. Here endeth the Woolly report.
Poor billytea. Maybe this is the time to send a second email--maybe something along the lines of, "Now, the real question is, did I misspell your name because I am stupid; because I made a typo; or did I do for an excuse to send a second email?"
No, see he's taking it slow with the couch. There are regular visits, longing looks... I think they've even spent a significant amount of time snuggling. But actually buying the couch is a big step. You want to be sure it will be forever.
Cass, you're being really mature about this. I admire your strength, mama. (Does your couch know?)

Oh no, now I can use it as an experiment to see if she notices! I'm guessing yes, but if not then it could be worth noting in the file.
Laura, those are some nice looking boys you have. And so tall!
Hi all!
Thanks for the nice comments on the boys. They have always been bigger than their mates. They are turning into young men on me. They are lovely boys. I am blessed.
I got my Toto picture! Thanks vw. Go you with the letter writing. I never have managed that. A couple sentences is about it for my cards, when I manage them.
It's so weird when the start getting big. The past few months, hugging Ben has felt much more like hugging an adult than hugging my baby. *sigh* Well, I suppose I can start making him shovel and take out the trash. *g*
Thanks for all the ~ma and good wishes.
I forgot to mention, when my grandma ws going through a really hard time back in November, and I got the Buffista ~ma on the case, she turned around very quickly for the better, mentally and physically and is doing really well right now. So, thanks so much.
Tired. I'm having such a hard time getting out of bed these days. I need it to be lighter and warmer. Going to Puerto Rico on Saturday may help temporarily, but coming back to the same cold bleakness will suck.

Yay! That was quick! I just mailed them on Saturday. I thought with the holiday, it would take longer than that.
