I have a new chair!

[ellenmillion]

I needed one badly - the one I had was just TOO short, and tippy, and I think it was tilted, and it made my back hurt.

So, Jake and I went drafting stool shopping, and found a gem - it's got an adjustable foot rest (bliss!) and it goes far enough down to be a standard desk chair, plus way higher than I even need for the drafting table! It has arms, and the back is *exactly* what I need, with lumbar support that's adjustable. LOVELOVELOVE. So much more comfortable. It was the floor model, too, so we got 40% off! Yay! Still a $200+ chair, but worth it if my back doesn't hurt!

Handful of EMG designs 'up,' working on more, and ansering emails now. Next, postcards. Then some art, lunch, a billion loads of laundry while I fill orders, and maybe a movie tonight. :)

Having myself purchased a $990 chair, I both sympathize and mock you. :)

I need a chair badly. I'm still using a metal folding chair I bought "just for temporary purposes" about three years ago....

Hurray! New chair!! Worth the $200+ if it means a healthier you!

i'm just realising now the difference a good chair makes.
i was using like an $80 office chair (you know, just the standard swivel ones) for years, but a few weeks ago somebody up the road was throwing out a big comfy vinyl thing. i actually got it for free!

i feel like i'm getting more done now because of my new chair. i can stand to sit at the computer for much longer, without being distracted by how much my shoulders and and my lower back burns.

may you have similar wonderful experiences from your super-duper chair! ;-)

As a fellow-backpain sufferer (herniated disc)...YES...a good chair can completely change one's life! LOL! Glad you found one! I'm searching for one myself....
