The new couch that I wanted as part of the whole “Make hell cozy 2021” campaign came back in stock (at IKEA!) sooner than I thought, so Saturday it showed up and I thought, “Let’s put it together while Doc’s at work!”
Reader, this is why I work out. This was probably a two-person job, but I did it–with constant supervision and assistance from Toby, of course.
Enjoy it like Toby enjoys* new fabric for throw pillows:
*and immediately snags, see his right hand? At least the snag is near the selvedge.
And just like Bartleby the Scrivener, Toby and I would prefer not to.
(We had a busy weekend with social things both days and Toby made his feelings about that clear as we were getting ready on Sunday.)
Do you feel like you’re in the driver’s seat?
Or are you a passenger today?
Either way, hit it!
(Someone likes to enjoy a hot car when it pulls back into the garage.)
Better get in a cool dark hut your parents built you out of pillows and stick your tail out:
(Seriously, if you’re in the West stay cool, check on the elderly, bring your pets inside, and put out some water for the weeldlife.)
It’s going to be a busy week, but Toby says, “Maybe you can ignore it a little bit.”
“Wut? The weekend is over?”
It is, Toby, but at least I don’t have to go into the office. (I’m not sure Toby will ever let me go back to the office full-time. Think my bosses will take that excuse?)
Steal someone’s fleece jacket, put your paw over your face, and go back to bed if you can:
Sit in the sun and stick your tongue out
I haven’t had a chunk of time off since…last year? so it was really nice to have a whole week. We went on two hikes, hung wallpaper (!), cooked different sides (!!) for solo Thanksgiving, started The Mandalorian, and put up the Christmas tree. (And, you know, sat on the couch a lot and looked at the internet, too.)
