Flooring, Beds, and Sofas

Drove around the Farmer's Branch furniture district today with Mom and Dad, looking mainly for a bed but also for a sofa and possibly a set of tables and chairs.

Eurway had the same kind of stuff they always seem to have. Sofas were pretty inexpensive, but not at all what I wanted. Ditto the beds.

We went to three other contemporary stores, and only one of them had a bed I liked. One store carried the complete line of Innovation futons, including one on wheels. I've been wanting wheeled furniture for a while now, but have always backed away due to the high cost and the trouble of finding anything locally I liked. I want to SEE and TEST furniture before I spend a small fortune!!

I came home and found a place that sells the frames for $249 and the mattresses for an additional $179. I would need a matterss cover, too. While it beats the other store it's still expensive. And I'm not sure I'd get a good night's sleep out of it.

Went to a different LaZBoy store trying to track down a Dexter. No luck.

Dad and I talked about my plywood floors, and he feels they won't be durable enough. We've decided to go with painted concrete instead. Now I just have to decide what to paint.

Very tired. Mom is coming over tomorrow to help me clean the living room so I can move my matterss there during the concrete-painting. Going to sleep now, and will wake up in a few hours and clean a little.
