Enough about Washington, this isn't a political blog afterall. Let me tell you about the Marisa & Steve Economic Stimulus Plan....SHOP TILL YOU DROP!! All of my training and experience was attained from world-renowned shopper, Mo V...my mom. As mentioned way back when, we didn't have much "grown-up" furniture before and we ditched the crappy stuff we'd been moving around rather than move it again. So we have a house to outfit! So far benefitting from the M&S Econ Stimulous Plan have been: Fells Point Futon, Lowes, Kohls, JC Penny, Sears, Macy's, and HomeDecorators.com (which appears to be owned by Home Depot).
Steve worked from home this afternoon to wait for delivery of our bed:
And washer-dryer
Closed:
Open!:
Next week, the couch arrives!!
We've also purchased a desk, a multi-functional-futon-chair-thing (aka, a grown-up version of a flip-and-fuck), lots of paint and supplies, and 2 comforters! Pictures when we get to it!
*we may have actually benefitted from the 'bailout'...more on that later.

My wife and I have the same stimulus plan going in our house! Spend spend spend. Now that we're married, time to graduate to adult decor!
Sounds like a good plan. :-)
For furniture we are fans of craigslist, ebay, cb2, and west elm. Wish we had more money to spend there, but hopefully after refi we'll have some more dough.
Can I tell you how jealous I am that you have a washer/dryer on your bedroom level? I HATE hauling laundry up and down two flights of stairs! I tend to throw most of it down and ask Matt to carry it up. I would love for it to be in a more sensible location, like this. Can't wait to see your house!
