So last night I had to take Astro to the doggie emergency room.
He was choking and wretching and otherwise making me hysterical.
Fortunately, the wonderful vet at Pittsfield Veterinary Hospital figured out almost immediately that the boy had eaten burdocks.
Those are thistles, essentially, that had caught in his paw and beard. He and I went for a long hike in Kennedy Park Saturday afternoon, so I am sure he got them there. Bad Mom. I did not even see them. They kind of blended in with his shaggy dog coat, and I am not a helicopter dog-Mom.
As a result, I did not get time to finish this post. I had loaded in the photos and was sitting in front of the computer about to start captioning them when all this drama started.
Now I am whipped. I think I will have a drink. Seriously.
Aren’t these 1976 sofas and loveseats and chairs and interiors from Kroehler an absolute gas? I welcome reader comments and captions expounding upon them. As all I can think about right now is Season 3 of Dexter on Netcast and a long tall cold vodka and orange juice.

Blushing about memories of evenings spent on a crib couch……………ahem, yes Pam, the pill, sexual liberation, come on, use your imagination. I certainly wasnt sitting around looking at pictures of couches on the internet back then. : O
hehe, wild saturday night!
Just got the new Restoration Hardware catalogue yesterday. Started thumbing through it and gasped out loud. Yes, there was a pit! It was absolutely gorgeous. You could live in that thing! Check it out!
Looking for a sofa the style of the last photo. 70’s, wood trim and buttoned back cushions. Several years ago I inherited a 70’s orangeish almost plaid platform rocker. I love the style and have been looking for a sofa to match the skirted style. Have looked at the newer versions, but nothing comes close really. I am looking for that style. If anyone has any ideas of where I can look I’d appreciate the contact information.
Hi Deb, I think on this one… you’re likely to have the most success sourcing vintage. Then, you may need to get the sofa upholstered…
I have a Kroehler in excellent condition. I mean mint! I was going to have it recovered so it would finally match where ever i put it. (For once) Always sat in my bedroom coroner no one used all the years prior to me and i always draped a blanket over the back and side so no one coming into my room would mess that up so i can say for the last 31 yrs Ive cleaned it weekly and NOW I NEED TO KNOW THE VALUE AND HAVING IT RECOVERED WILL DRAG THE PRICE DOWN CORRECT?
