Sofa Anyone?

in #life8 years ago

Just after Christmas I was cleaning my daughters room. My energy levels were really high, thanks to being gluten free with probiotic supplements. One thing led to another and before long I was giving her room a complete makeover. Putting up shelves, moving furniture around, hanging pictures, cleaning out junk. I ended up moving a tv and xbox in too.
All she needed now was a sofa.
I checked online for a second hand one. Within minutes I had found a beautiful brown leather recliner for €120.
My mind anticipated many negatives, it's already sold, or it’s damaged, or someone's already viewing it, or the seller will be one of those time wasters, constantly cancelling arrangements.

My gut said different. It said relax, be patience, it'll work out.
Of course, the guy cancelled our first appointment and was beginning to come across as someone who might be difficult to arrange a time with.
But, my mind was wrong again, I got to see it the next day, it was perfect and in great condition.

Before leaving my home to go view it I considered bringing just €60 as a deposit because I'd have to come back with a hired van to collect it another day. But my gut said no, bring €120, which I did.
It turns out, the back rests of the sofa come off the base, so I was able to buy it there and then, fit it into my small car and bring it straight home that evening.

Everything just fell perfectly into place, which seems to happen a lot these days,
