susandennisI so love my new chair and ottoman. Visually, they are a huge huge huge improvement. On Myles of Style last week, Kim Myles said you should buy stuff for your home that will delight you as much after you've had it for years as it does when you see it for the first time. That is, actually, a very bad paraphrase, BUT for the past week, every time I walk into my living room, I'm tickled again by the color, the shape, the very fungshwayness of the pieces and how they change entirely the way the room looks and works... for the good.
But, my ass also loves it. It's been sitting in one position for 3 years now and it is so thrilled with the variety. Sometimes we have our legs up. Sometimes down. Sometimes folded indian style. I can have the computer on my lap or in front of me on a stand or on the side. There is plenty of room for both cats to sit at my side or my feet or on my legs.
It's just a wonderful, wonderful thing in so many ways. Well worth the money and the wait.

I just got a good 15 hour project to work on that is easy peasy and has no particular deadline. Sweet! Most of it involves moving files from one spot to another - they are giant files in nice folders so I click 'copy to...' and then wait an hour or so. Not exactly heavy lifting.
The little thermometer says I have 20 minutes remaining on this batch so I think I'll go see what's for lunch!
