Oh my, I've got my eye on a shabby chic sofa! Have any of ya'll any experience with this Rachel Ashwell furniture line? I'm providing the web addy: http://www.laylagrayce.com/my favorite sofa: http://www.laylagrayce.com/detail.aspx?ID=1788A bit expensive, yet my tushy needs comfortable cushions! Kincaid made a similar sofa, yet now going out of business. Not to hip on Ethan Allen -- I've seen many complaints. My present sofa is nearly 14 years and the springs scring! What are your favorite furniture styles, makers, fabrics, etc? Pros / Cons?

Great sofa, Mustang. We have leather right now. It's cold in the winter. I prefer cloth but I'm not sure it would hold up as well with a dog. I need something that doesn't stain.

Mustang, I ended up with a red leather sofa and I love it. Daisy doesn't like to sit on it but I have a thick pad/blanket for her to lay on.
It's definitely NOT shabby chic, but my decor is very ecletic (sp?) and I have a combination of old, new and funky.

Well, it looks like the hub is going to buy another flatscreen tv. The one we have is 40 inches and he's looking at a 60 inch one now. Soon, the entire wall is going to be one big television! It's HD so will be nice.

Reminds me of a funny story. A few months ago, Dan and I decided to buy a new HD, Flat screen, whatever... Some kind of BIG TV.
We went to Best Buy and found exactly what Dan wanted for thousands less than we thought we would have to pay. But we hadn't looked anywhere else and thought maybe we just didn't know prices. Besides, we wanted it the next day, they were closing, and we were in the car, not the truck.
Dan had our new digital camera (about the size of a cassette tape) in his pocket and he took it out to snap a photo of the TV and the price tag. I was embarrassed and told him he shouldn't do that, but he just grinned and took a couple more then put the camera back in his pocket.
The next day we looked at several stores for a Big TV and when we saw the prices, we rushed right back to Circuit City. Well, it had a whole different price tag than it had the night before. We asked about the price change and the manager came over to assure us if we could "prove" we had seen it for a lower price the night before, we could get it for the lower price.
We just looked at each other and burst out laughing. Ding, ding, ding. We had a photo. We went home and printed it out and took it back.
They gave us the TV at the very much lower price.
I resolved never again to harrass Dan for taking ridiculous photos.
