    Default score!!

    how's this for AWESOME?!

    my DLIB/SO (live-in-boyfriend/sig other) and I just bought our 1st house about 3 weeks ago. Have a TON of stuff between the 2 of us, but had not much for LR furniture (ratty futon, covered with a throw)

    he works in construction and is currently remodeling a hotel. today he saw them pulling out all the old furniture and asked where it was headed. when they said salvation army, he asked if he could buy a sofa. they said take whatever you want as long as you get it in your truck before SA gets here!!!

    he got us a new pull out couch, 2 armchairs and an ottoman that a) fit in our tiny LR and 2) match our decor!!!

    HAPPY DANCE!!!!!
    he's the greatest!
