The Chicken Coop

I am a paper crafter. I've been playing with paper, and cutting and pasting for many years now and I still just love it. I teach classes each month and would love to have you.
You can find me at MyRedHen.blogspot.com and on Pinterest
or email me at MyRedHen4@yahoo.com
I'd love to hear from you.
Every now and then I have some cards or little treats available for sale that may be seen here.
My blog also contains my personal posts. Ignore them if you like, but you may get a kick out of them. Maybe my girls will read them one day and get insights into the inner workings of an old woman's brain....Scary Thought!
There is a list of labels on the right side of the blog, so you can click there to go to only the posts that you are interested in. That will allow you to skip the personal posts and any items for sale if you wish. No matter which way you choose, I hope will enjoy my little blog and visit often.

Couch Apology



Oh dear!
Today my crazy challenge is this:
If your furniture, appliances, and other inanimate objects at home had feelings and emotions, to which item would you owe the biggest apology?
 This is a totally an easy one. It's my poor couch. No doubt about it.


I found my poor old brown couch on Craig's List and it had already had a long life in someone else's home. Since coming to reside here it has aged further. I owe the poor thing a huge apology because it puts up with my rear end sitting on it with my legs pulled up under me every single night. The worst part is that I plant that rear end in the exact same spot each time and my poor couch (Let's call him Harold. Peek-A-Boo and I need a man around this house.) is not holding up too well in that area. In addition to the normal wear and tear, he pretty much serves as my dining room since I always seem to pick that same spot to sit and eat. Peek-A Boo sleeps her days away on him and he has often served as a bed for me as well. There he is in sickness and health putting up with my abuse.There is one spot that he uses to try and get back at me. It kind of pokes out and jabs me if I hit that special place. I guess I deserve it. I have already put two pillows under the cushions to try and help Hiram hold up under the pressure. I don't know how much more the poor old guy can take. I sneak a peek at Craig's list sometimes when he's not looking to try and find a replacement, but my pocketbook Mildred says a firm "NO" every time. I wish I could say that Harold would be put out to pasture if a new man were to come to reside here, but there is a fellow at church that really needs a couch, so poor Harold may be moving on to live in at least one more household. That's between you and me. Don't say anything to Harold. I'm afraid he may revolt and do something drastic.
Anyway Harold, You have my deepest apologies.Old Cartoon Couch Do you have a couch that's old
