The scales are actually tipping toward new chair, but I'll do the pricing, just to be sure. Thanks for the input!
Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

I think I'd find someone who will appreciate the chair to give it to, and buy a new one that works for both of you and has a matching ottoman.
One thing I'm having to learn is that just because a piece of furniture is wonderful doesn't mean it has to keep living in my house. stares at awkward coffee table

Nice sword, Gud!
I'm sorry about the job loss, Dana. Job~ma to you and your DH.
I believe a nearby community college here offers upholstery classes where they let you bring in projects. My neighbor was thinking of taking one, because she'd have direction and access to equipment that might make things easier. Might be worth looking into community colleges in your area, Beverly.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I think the structure of that chair would make reupholstery worthwhile. No new chair will have the same quality of construction.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Yikes, Dana. Scary times.

That sucks, Dana. I'm sorry. I guess at least he's getting out of a misery-making job.

Tools for DIY surgery could be an up-and-coming market in the United States. With medical care becoming more and more expensive, there's sure to be a demand for tools to help with doing your own medical procedures.

Ha! Not even going to click because the smile already happened.
Happy Friday! Plans for the big weekend?
I have date night tonight with dinner then watching God of Carnage at the local theater. Saturday working on house construction projects. Sunday have the memorial for DH's aunt who passed a bit ago. Not sure about Monday. The kids have to work! I might do a BBQ pool thing later in the day.

Sorry about the job news, Dana. Hopefully you'll both find something less troublesome in short order.
