Have you ever wrestled a sofa?

Four years ago I decided I wanted a sectional sofa. A nice big sectional that would be comfortable for both me and my boyfriend. That it was. I would lay on one of the sides, my boyfriend on the other. But the sofa was so large that it took up half the room. I remember the struggle the movers had when they delivered it! They *barely* got it threw the door. My angel kitty Bailey would scratch at it. Since she had diabetes, I let her do whatever she wanted. The arm rests became slightly tattered.
Then I got Lily and Opie and they couldn't resist but scratch it too. It got a bit ridiculous looking after a while. I decided I just had to get rid of it, and buy something smaller....with less...scratch-ability.
My boyfriend and I wrestled this sofa out of the apartment today. And by wrestling, I mean drop down, wrestle. The sofa won.
We got ONE side of the sofa out...the other side refused to go. We paid the maintenance man to come up with a sledge hammer and break the sofa in half. It finally gave up and we wedged it out. Bye bye monster sofa.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

art facts TAG

Hi Y'all!

I've been tagged by the FABULOUS Chris Stott to give 5 ART FACTS about myself. I will then tag someone and so on and so on.

Okay here we go:

1. I paint mostly in the evening. After the city has gone to sleep.

2. I graduated from the Ontario College of Art and Design in 1997.

3. My favorite acrylic paint brand is Golden.

4. Lately I listen to Joel Osteen's CD book while painting.

5. I always finish a painting in one sitting. I don't like going back and working on art after I started it. My mood may have changed and the style might not be consistent

Now I am going to tag Christine Clemmensen to tell us about her 5 art facts!
