A COUCH TO THE CURB

Throwing out old, damaged furniture that has had a good run is uplifting. A 17 year old couch that was propped at one end with books for the last couple of months due to a broken leg. I was beginning to feel like my parents! They had a couch like that. Relocating a sofa bed couch from another room, the family room has a couch that is functional in more ways than one. Good for guests or for the hubbie on a hot summer night- it opens to a bed! No need to buy a new one. However, the relocated couch is not as comfortable for the hubbie. So what is happening! He can not nap or sleep on it as well so is coming to bed and sleeping properly on his good bed where he should have slept anyway. Changing what we have to a new location in the home can be refreshing and better for the body. Using our resources at hand so to speak! Besides as the slow move to downsizing is happening, having one less old thing to move is good. Of course Adolph said goodbye to the couch at the curb. He did not like my answer- it's just a couch!
