Furniture Shopping

After getting the old 1989 Mustang all tuned up and a new clutch (that part was unexpected), I took it out to Gallup today to check out some furniture for the house. The old car still has a lot of pep! I had to get it in shape before moving to New Mexico.

I decided to dump the old dark oak dining table. I got tired of looking at it since I've had it for over 30 years (bought during my marriage).

I stopped at a place in Gallup and looked around in their showroom of dining sets. Most of them were of dark wood or other materials. But I saw this one:

As you can see, it is a lighter stained wood and would go well in the dining area next to the kitchen:

The other item I was on the lookout for was a sofa-bed that would go into the spare bedroom that will probably be used as an office and/or a guest room.

I saw this one (and the pillows come with it) that I liked:

This will be the room that it would go into:

I am seriously considering buying both, maybe tomorrow. The price is right, about $700 each, and even cheaper if I pay cash (which I would anyway). The store also has free delivery.

Neither item is flashy, but would compliment each room.
