My Trails

I

I have a couple more upgrades to talk about. Maybe they are not so much upgrades as luxury items or fun things to me. I have been spending money like a drunken sailor and I don’t think Santa will like me buying myself these presents!😉 But let me explain how I rationalize getting them. 

Donna gave me one of her rocking/easy chairs last year and it has been comfortable for many days of lounging. I have sat in it so many hours that the fabric is starting to wear through. And the most annoying thing is that it picks up all my sweaty odors and was beginning to smell like me. Even after Febreze and fabric cleaner, it still had that locker room air. I try to keep clean and I’m constantly cleaning my rig, but living cooped up in the desert or on dusty, forest roads, doesn’t help either. 

I started looking at office chairs as an alternative to a recliner and found some that are leather, will recline, and even have foot rests. They like to call these chairs executive chairs. I decided to order one to try as my main potato, considering I no longer had a couch anymore. 

A while ago I couldn’t even spell executive and now I are one! Amazon advertised a plush leather chair that met all my criteria so I ordered it, and then a week later, assembled it where my other chair lived. I was hoping by being leather it would have that new car smell, but it has a strange odor I’m hoping goes away soon. It is quite comfortable, however, and I will give it some time to bond with me. 

Moving on from the chair, the next item I bought should save me some money in the long run.
