Husband's chair is very comfortable, I can tell it would be lovely for a snooze when reclined. My chair, whilst it's lovely to look at and makes me smile, isn't as immediately comfortable, it's currently quite firm - the leaflet that came with it said it will soften up after a week or two of sitting.....good excuse to sit in it more then! The arms on my old recliner chair seemed quite high, making it feel like my shoulders were up around my ears, which wasn't very comfortable, particularly when I was crocheting. The arms on the new one, however, are a bit lower and feel like they keep my arms in a more natural position. I reclined it yesterday for half an hour, it's certainly comfy to relax in.
The lorry turned up next door at 06.45 this morning, to take away the latest small mountain of rubble that had accumulated before the builders were sacked. They held off for 15 mins before they started work, although were stood outside my bedroom window with Mr X all having a loud and laughing conversation (why do men always seem to shout and hoot with laughter, do we all need to hear them?!). Good job I was up and about! They're still working the grabber thing putting loads of rubble into the lorry, very noisy. We've not seen Mr X to talk to recently so have no idea if he's engaged another firm of builders yet, there's certainly no work been done on the barn for the past fortnight, which has meant it's been blissfully peaceful.
Husband's sister and niece arrive on Monday, to stay in the Premier Inn for 4 days, so I need to get organised. They'll be having breakfast at the hotel, we'll be having lunch out every day and I'll be providing the evening meal....as it's still going to be hot, I'll be doing something with salad every day, probably a frittata one day, maybe pizza or jacket spud with prawns another day. Husband suggested we have fish and chips on the beach one day too - great idea. I'll make some scones so we can have a cream tea on Monday when they arrive.
Off out to the tip this morning, then for a quick browse in town, getting home before lunch so we don't have to be out in the heat of the afternoon.
I'm sure your chair will soon mould to your shape and be really comfortable. You've got a good excuse to just sit quietly!
ReplyDeleteI don't know if it's a man thing, but very often when we're in a cafe, there is one person (usually a man) talking so loudly that you can hear their conversation from the other side of the room. Maybe their hearing is going! I hope you can spend the rest of the summer without noisy building work next door. That would be good. xx
I am sure your chair will soften up with use and will be very comfortable. I truly believe that men make noise no matter what. My husband has the biggest, most dramatic sneezes I have every seen or heard.
