preposterous price

Even though we live in a loft with limited square footage, we need more furniture. It's a matter of seating---where to put visitor's behinds! Pulling up a dining chair didn't work, often someone would end up sitting on the little footstool. A new chair, or pair, was a needed addition to the living area. Patrick and I went shopping and found a pair that will work very well---I hope-- in our little seating area.

Our search for a nice, comfortable, smallish chair was a "death march" like my husband would say. The styles, fabric and size of chairs were very limited in the big box stores. Most chairs were big. Very big with a big ottoman. Nicer sizes and choices at Macy's. However the prices were big. Very big. I had to look twice at a price tag on a chair that said $6750. I can't understand what constitutes that high price. Unless it tones, tightens and rids your backside of cellulite while you are seated. Perhaps I should have inquired.

Quote of the day from Washington Irving;

"A kind heart is a fountain of gladness, making everything in its vicinity freshen into smiles."

Have a great day!
