I love nature. I love all kinds of animals. So naturally I fell in love with this photo:
How cool for the frog to let the mouse to have a ride! To read more about the picture just click on the picture. It is on the National Geographic site. You will find other great pictures at their site and can even download wallpapers if you want of the pictures.
This was me waiting for my couch to be delivered today. Or should I call it a sofa? Sofa sounds more expensive than couch doesn't it? Oh, well it really doesn't matter what you call it. The delivery guys weren't thrilled when I asked them to move my old sofa out of the house. But a HUGE problem came when they tried to get the new sofa into my house.
Just as you enter my front door there is the corner of a wall. Plenty enough room for going in and out, and all my furniture came through that doorway when I moved here. Even the old sofa came through the front door. The new one wouldn't. It is about the same length as the old one but it is.....what's a good word? chunkier? Anyways there was no way it was coming through the front door and around that corner.
So one of the delivery guys starts looking at one of my front windows. I kid you not! I have those replacement type windows that you can take completely out (of course I didn't know it until today). I am not lying folks! My brand new sofa came into my house via the living room window!!! This sofa had better last an extremely long time! The only way for it to leave is the way it came in, through a window!
Tammy over at "As I Am" is looking for help for a new idea she has. I would not to justice in trying to explain. Here is an excerpt from her entry:
I would like a list of people who wouldn't mind offering a bit of their time helping others. All that is required is that you be available whenever possible to receive emails from people who are going through the same thing, or have a loved one who is. I will put my name first to get it started. Just be there to answer their questions and give whatever support you can. I know it's a good thing and I know it helps because once, I found a friend who was going through the same things. I finally felt like I wasn't alone. That person understood my pain. I get a lot of emails every day from people asking me questions about my condition. It works!
Please go and read her entire entry to see if you are able to help her out. And even if you can't help leave a comment to say you were there. I know she would love it.
Whew, this has been a long entry. Sorry. Take care.

wow I bet that was a sight to see. I cant believe you did not know about the windows makes it easier to clean them lol chceck out her web site
You don't want to hear my horror stories about items of furniture that don't fit through doors. Desks that had to be sawed in half as they didn't fit through the lift doors to a 5th floor flat; sofas that needed entering through a window; a piano that wouldn't turn that awkward corner into the living room and never came into the house - aaaaargh!!!

WOW! Not *that* would be a sight, a sofa coming through a window. Isn't it fun to get new things? Even a little thing, like a single rose in a tiny vase lifts one's spirits.

Thank you for spreading the word friend! You don't have to be sick or disabled to help. Just to be a friend when someone is down is just as important! If you are interested in becoming a friend, pen pal whatever, email me. Thanks! Tammy memes121@aol.com
Will check the links out.
Loved that photo above. : )

Have a good day.

Hi, Our sofa is really big too and it took the delivery men forever to get it through the front door and then into our main living room. I dread moving house and having to get it out again....lol! I love the mouse and frog piccie. Have a great weekend. :o)

I always enjoy the graphics and pictures I find on your page. Have you spent time on the new couch/sofa yet? You know, laying down, sitting, ect. New is always nice and comfortable but, it take years to get it just right for our fannies. Regards, Bill.
I know how that is. I had my husband make me a bar and he built it outside. So when they tried to get in the house he couldn't and so he had to take out the whole window and when we moved he had to the same thing to get it out and into the new apartment.
Amy
well I love that pictures. That is sweet. So happy they got the couch no sofa in. Even if it was through the window. Enjoy it. I'll check out that other journal you mentioned. Thanks.
