A BIT GREEN TODAY!

This is just one of those rare posts where exhaustion has been my shadow, and I'm just too zapped to Blog the Great Fandango! My thanks to the movers (morons) who were transporting a teak wood Holland desk that I deemed simply too big for my flat. And after a wrenching 45 minutes, the exhausted men with cuts and abrasions after navigating three flights of stairs managed to accidentally break the desk into three pieces. They ended up "Unloading" what was left of the creation into the dumpster. My plan was to consign it and go with a smaller, albeit, a more functional desk. You may ask "Was it painful to witness this funky outcome up close and personal?" You bet! Some of this may be attributed, I suspect, to the fact that I was the lead moron! However, not all was lost. I borrowed one nifty strategy from the guys who actually moved me here last December. I wrapped an entire roll of Saran Wrap around said desk and upright two-wheeler. That part worked. And my humor (and humility) is still intact! With this in mind, I hope to write to you from my new desk by weeks end! One hand claps abound...I know, I know! :D))

Rest in peace, dear teak wood desk. Alas, ye will be missed. ;o)
Hope the rest of your week goes better, Michael.
Love and hugs,
Diane
Don't worry, take time out, and ta thanks for keeping us posted.
But on the bright side.
You did get it out of your flat and weren't flattened by it on the way out.
Ouch!
:D
Diane: NO need to bake anything special. I get out of the shower and look at myself in the ole mirror and say, "What rugby tournament were YOU in, idiot? :D))!!!!!!
Have a cool day Diane!
Ellee: Thanks for the Upcheer. I'm braving this silly situation from a cool barstool and my kitchen service window (for a desk) TA-DA!!!! :)
Walker: "Do Not Try This At Home".
D Man: More like: "Stupid!" But alas, as Shakespeare tells us in Macbeth (which I never read but it's so cool to reel off a quote as if I;m literate) "What's done is done". Fortunately, on most mornings I wake up in bed laughing out loud about something like this ala Dudley Moore in "Arthur". :D))!
I'm sorry I'm laughing. Do you remember the scene from Friends when Ross "supervised" moving the huge sofa up the steep and winding stairs?
"Pivot!" "Pivot!"
if you lived in a cold climate you could have had one helluva bonfire.
I do some of my best work from a bar stool but that's another story.
Accidents happen. At least nobody got hurt. Well, you did, but you know what I mean. Nobody lost a spine. Saran Wrap doesn't work with broken spines. It might keep a leg immobile until an ambulance arrives. You didn't have to call an ambulance.
Congrats on your new desk, Michael. Now you can pen your great masterpiece.
dianne: I DO remember the episode about that Chair the two guys loved. Remember when the back kept falling off because the chair was so worn out? Hey, I'm glad I made you laugh! That made my day!! :D))
Seraphine: I've decided to consign the chair too, as in "What the hell?" Actually the former Dining Room is now my guitar studio! Hey, what can I say? These architects made all of these neat looking angles when you enter my place, and it costs square footage. Plus, Kate Hudson isn't coming over for dinner anytime soon, and if she did we wouldn't be having dinner. That's my logic! :D))!!!
Really sounds me familiar the band Heart, two girls singers, right??
Maria: Two sisters, yes!
