        @ck-macleod We don’t believe in valuable furniture, other than sentimental value. For example, we still have the same couch/loveseat set that Jay’s had since he was a kid (it’s been reupholstered once and is probably going to experience that again in the coming year. Also restuffed because ow.)

        Shabby chic just looks *better* when it’s got cat holes / shreds / etc.Report

  2. Ouch. I hope she didn’t swallow any of those shards.Report

    And I remember when CDs came out, the big selling point was that they would never scratch or deteriorate like vinyl.
    Practically indestructible, those things are.
    Last forever.Report
