Saturday Saying #4
We’re all in this together
High School Musical
Every six months or so I get restless. Djembe has learned to humor me during these times. He will rearrange the furniture or help me paint. He even broke his arm because of me. (Curious? Read about it here and the miserable ER visit here.) OK, not because of me…the TV mounting was not ALL my idea. Anyway, he is Mr. Wonderful when it comes to dealing with my latest whim.
Today I had the grand idea to switch the music room and the living room. The catalyst for this decision was the fact that the living room wall is shared with the shower wall in the bathroom. If someone is taking a shower it is all you can hear, and if someone wishes to enjoy a relaxing bath all they can hear is the TV. The other reason, I like the fireplace and want it to get the respect that it deserves instead of sharing the glory with Jem’s awesome TV. I was very surprised when Jem agreed that it was a good idea. Despite the hours that the transition required I must say it was not just a good idea, it was great. The living room will now close off. It is a cozy space, very relaxing. The den is just as relaxing. It needs one more chair, but that is not essential to enjoy the serenity of a relaxing workspace and fireplace. (I am such a pyro.) A couch and my comfy chair are sufficient for now. The PC is in here as well. I must say, it works. I’m just thankful that I have someone willing to appease me.
I am still going to petition for his drum stuff to accent the office den. I really liked having a music room.
Everyone worked together today. There were tense times when the girls insisted on being under foot. They did their part though. They cleaned their rooms and worked on getting their clean clothes folded and put away. I like when we are working together. These days it is essential.
Hope your weekend is grand.
