Later this morning I'm planning on making broiled tomatoes, over medium egg, vegan sausage and toast. The usual pot of hot tea

Today, I'm as sore as one could be. I had one of those sofa beds in my den for over 20 years. We been wanting to get rid of it, because it's not very comfortable to sleep on. I need the space to move the treadmill out of Loretta's sewing room. There was no way two old people could move that old couch to the outside of the house, so I can get rid of it. So I brought up some tools and literally dismantle the couch, and carried it out in pieces. I never dreamed how hard that would be, but I'm happy it's done. Only took me about 5 hours, lol.
Good Morning 🌞

Maybe you could have broken down the job into smaller work sessions to avoid the sore muscles?

Frightfully expensive right now. Ive delayed action on a deteriorating shed because of it.
