I have spent way too long comparing the prices and qualities of moving boxes. I think Storage King is winning so far. Now I have to try to figure out how many boxes and what size I need. It would nice to be rich enough to afford a full packing service.

Thank you.

I would however like to return the ๐Ÿ”ฅ, I have had far too much of that already this afternoon and would now prefer my creme sans brulee

Mixed tempura vegetables, followed by honey chicken and black pepper beef, with creme brulee for desert please.

Edit: and a pot of Chinese tea.

I have made a start on the next lot of cushions, but decided to take a break instead and went to Resource Rescue (craft supplies) and ended up spending the last couple of hours sorting zippers and untangling elastic. Miss Meow tried to help, but her technique was a bit suspect and things went faster when she was diverted to a job as paperweight instead.

My theory is that you are much more likely to do that if you have trained yourself to believe the alarm sound is unimportant by constantly hitting the snooze button.

Second cushion is complete. My aim is to finish the two back cusions today as well, but I might only get one done. I'm glad I decided to do the sofa with a single long cushion instead of the three seperate cushions it currently has, that would have taken a lot more time.

Yes. I've disabled the snooze function, and the time the alarm goes off is the time I need to get up. If I can afford a bit more time I don't see the point in setting the alarm earlier and having a period of interupted sleep instead of just sleeping properly for as long as I can.

Cushion 1 is complete. I'm very pleased with the pattern matching.

Five more cushions to go.

Not just a pattern, but a directional floral design incorporating striped panels, so it also needs to be evenly spaced and the pieces need to match up.
