Pat bought a new-to-us chair a little while ago. We had it delivered and I was able to bring it in off the back deck on my own. I didn’t like the feel of it but it stayed where it was until the next time Pat came home.

Pat felt the same as I did about the chair so we decided to do some furniture switching. The chair I currently used for watching TV would come back to the living room, the “new” chair would move up-upstairs to the room across from where I sew, and the swivel rocker in that room would move to the basement as my TV chair.

While Pat was away this time I moved the footstool from the “new” rocker upstairs but there was no way I could make any of the other changes on my own. I remember a time when it would have been nothing for me to whip chairs up and/or down and rearrange any number of pieces of furniture.

Today we tackled the move of the furniture and it wasn’t easy – it was hard for both of us. Pat eventually took one chair out the front door, around the sidewalk and in through the back door because we couldn’t get it through a doorway. We had a similar struggle getting the swivel rocker down the two flights of stairs and through a door. The only easy part was moving the “new” rocker upstairs – it is light and not nearly as wide as those other pieces.

I’m looking forward to trying out the chair with my knitting and some TV later tonight.
