Well, as it turns out, I'm not in Sonoma right now at the family reunion. We had quite the crazy morning yesterday. We got up early and showered me and packed me all up. Whizzed over to the pharmacy because I realized that I didn't have enough of one of my medicines to get me through until Monday, found out that their computer system had crashed and had lost that particular prescription and the pharmacist spent about ten minutes frantically trying to find the hard copy of the script. He couldn't. When we made it over to my mom's to pick her and my brother up, she was still out taking the dogs to doggie day care, so we sat in the car, waiting for her to pull up... We waited and waited and waited... My brother finally came out of the house and realized we were there in the driveway and we got loaded up with the suitcases. My mom finally got home and in the car at about 9:10ish and we drove through some pouring rain and a small river on the freeway to the airport. Did I mention that our flight was set to depart at 9:50? We parked and went in the airport. It seemed silly to try to run with me to catch the plane, so I pretty much knew at that point that I wasn't going. Mom and Nate flew standby a little later in the morning and got there safe and sound. To tell the truth, I wasn't that heartbroken or upset about not going. I've not been feeling well all week and although I'm feeling good now, it probably would have turned out that I would have gotten sicker and would have been miserable. I felt badly though because I know my mom was excited about having me go and she really was very sweet to offer to push me around the farm and take me without Laurie. I think it boils down to I love her and didn't want to see her upset by me not going.
We had the upholstery guy come and look at our furniture to give us a price quote on reupholstering the sofa and chair and the recliner. We were really excited about him coming out because we've seen work he did for a friend and he told us that he could fix the springs in the couch too and touch up the woodwork. We were even more excited about the price he quoted us! So Laurie and I went to Joann's after the airport fiasco and shopped for the fabric we want on our new furniture. We found some that we absolutely love! It was even 50% off! So here are the pics:
Here's the fabric for the sofa and matching chair
The fabric with the woodwork.
The fabric that is going on the recliner, it's really soft too even though it looks kind of rough.
