But does the carpet match the drapes?

RC and have an ongoing disagreement regarding the carpet in the new house. I know you were expecting some racy blog post on more personal topics but alas, it's still house related. Womp...womp...

The house has these great original wood floors, carpet in the first floor bedrooms and the strangely enough, the upstairs bathroom. I personally like the carpet. RC hates the carpet. It supposedly makes him sick to his stomach just looking at it.

O
This green one is my favorite.


Perhaps I am too retro in my thinking....

NOT as enamored by this bad boy.  

The rusty brown leaves something to be desired....

 I truly love the green. The brown not so much. Aren't plain wood floors cold? Don't you need rugs and shiz to keep your furniture from scratching the finish?

We also looked at appliances that we need to buy. Here is my crazy idea: I want....drumroll please....an upright refrigerator and full upright freezer. Yes. Two separate units. I figure why not just buy them separately since we would only end buying a freezer anyway if we went with a traditional fridge. This just cuts out the extra appliance. What do you think? Genius or corn-fed folly?
