Our Nice New Area Rug For the Dining Room

Laura and I went out to Sam’s Club and Lowe’s last night to get some stuff. By the way, I think it was “Obesity Wednesday” at Sam’s Club. We really have to get out of that place. I can’t stand looking at those people any more. I try…I really try to be a nice guy, but when I see someone who obviously has some issues load their cart up with soda, cookies and other junk, they are just stupid. Wow…what a rant. Maybe we will try Costco or something.

After we sqeezed through the herd at Sam’s Club and made it through the doors without any potato chip grease on us, we went across the parking lot to Lowes. We really needed to get an area rug for under the dining room table. Every time I pull a chair out, sit on it and slide it back in, I cringe. SCRAAAATCH. I even nailed those plastic sliders under each chair leg and table leg. The problem is…if there is any dirt on the floor, the plastic slider slides the dirt too, for a nice big scratch.

So this is the rug we picked up. I wanted to go cheap…really cheap. I found one for about $29 and received a look of disgust from Laura. She has standards I guess. We looked around a bit and found this nice one for around $100. I think it was the nicest one in the store. It measures 7’x10′.

Well, what do you think? Do you love it? If yes, write a comment. If no, keep your thoughts to yourself. HAHA.
