This stems from the fact that we don't have the same method when moving things.
Actually, we do. We both agree that when you're moving things around or moving apartments, you should clean things out and get rid of things.
But I don't feel that 10:00 at night is the time to do this. So I decided we should just move the furniture and not worry about deep cleaning things.
However this frustrated Brian as he kept finding piles of things that he didn't know why we were keeping. And then he'd come ask me why we were keeping them.
Which frustrated me because I have a tendency to hold on to things just in case we might use them someday. A bad habit I picked up from my mom.
Brian tends to be more like my dad and just wants to throw it away. He even admitted that one day he'll just start throwing stuff away without asking me, which also upset me.
But it was all for a good purpose.
We got a new couch!!
It was a great deal, and we've been wanting a real couch instead of our futon for a while. It's our Valentine's/Anniversary gift to each other.
It's nice and comfy and we can actually lay down on it together to watch movies.
So happy!
The wall is a little bare because our hutch and bookshelf used to be there (as can be seen here). Brian's going to take pictures with his fancy camera to fill it up. I'm going to buy a cute shelf so I still have somewhere to put my decorations. :)
We moved everything to the back room so now it looks like this:
Still tiny, but we fit it all in.
Happy Friday!

I LOVE your new couch! I think I shall come over and take a sit on it.
About the throwing away... I love cleaning out stuff, and am fine with throwing away Kyle's things but I tend to think my things are worth keeping. I hord.
Can't wait to see your living room in person
Love the couch! Bryce and I are the same way when it comes to organizing and throwing things away. I absolutely love that I have someone who I can argue about house organization with. That's what makes marriage so much fun!
I hold on to everything. Welcome to my messy apartment.
But a NEW COUCH!!! I am so insanely jealous and pretty much coveting your new couch. I want to come sit on it too!! You should have a couch sitting party!!! YEAH!
p.s. Did you buy it used or is it brand new??
Yeah as everyone said above. I LOVE your new couch!! It looks so comfy! And I love organizing a throwing stuff away too, nathan tends to hold on to too much stuff in my opinion. :)
Ok, totally redundant here, but I love the new couch! For me it is a great feeling when you can actually buy something that is new :) Love it!
Hey, why'd you have to say BAD habit from your mom, it could be a good thing!!??
