My wife and I recently bought a new sofa.
While I know this sounds fun and glamourous, it actually created much more work than I expected.
Our old sofa had served us well for many years. It was great for watching television, napping, serving as a bed when family members stayed at the house, acting as jumping pad for grandchildren and even taking on the role of a scratching post for our cat. That last part was frowned upon by my wife and me, but the cat had grown quite fond of it.
Our feline friend also enjoyed leaving her extra hair on the sofa, as well as knocking small items underneath it.
