Gowans Sectional Collection

I tell ya, besides food, my most passionate love is an oversized sectional sofa!

Yep!  You heard it right!

A sectional sofa!

I just love 'em!

Interestingly enough, I don't even own one.  My sofa is an uncomfortable sleeper sofa.

Before I brought it home, I could have sworn it felt comfortable.  I sat on it.  I really did.

But since then, the sucka is the WORST!!!!!!!  Sitting on it feels like I'm just sitting on wood.  The cushions suck!  I have to replace them.  Or at the very least, refill them with something a lot more cushy!

The sectional sofa featured above is from the Gowans Sectional Collection.  It retails for $3199.99.

Um...my sleeper sofa cost nowhere near that, so maybe that's a tell-tale sign!

I see the Gowans sectional sofa for sale online at Birch Lane and Wayfair.  I don't know why Wayfair sells it for more money, but I'm sure they have their greedy reason!

Oversized sectional sofas are simply EVERYTHING to me!

Simply EVERYTHING!!!!!    

If It's Important To You...

Hey, the wise man knows, if it's important to you, you'll find/make time for it.

Simple as that!

Reincarnation

Folks can say whatever they want, but I think "Uncle Arthur" has risen from the dead!!!
