Good morning and Happy Monday y'all! 😀
It's a beautiful sunny day here. 🌞 The sky is a gorgeous shade of blue and I can't see a cloud anywhere.
Not that I'm looking for any clouds but it is summer which means a thunderstorm ⛈ is likely as evening gets closer.
Not that it's close to evening. It's not yet noon here.
Still, I'm just saying... 😄
Any who, today I'm here to write about a concern I am currently experiencing: itching. 😩
It didn't start until I sat on the floor in front of my sofa. And it started with my left (outer) thigh and hip. Now it' seems to be spreading.
The floor in front of the sofa is my favorite place to sit in my whole apartment. One reason is because while the sofa is comfy for sleeping, sitting on it is just awkward and the floor is spacious. I can spread everything I need all around me: food, paper(s), books, yarn, etc.
The sofa is old and the springs are shot. So I jerry rigged it with a wooden board and some old bed pillows. It looks okay but just isn't comfy for sitting.
I really really really need to get a new sofa. I also really really really need a friend with a pick up truck. Because this old sofa has to go bye bye and the new one needs to get here safely.
So back to the itching...
I believe it's because I may have taken my duties as Sustainable Citizen a bit too far. 😔
When Baby Bliss moved out, she left about 10 pillows on her old bed.
Seriously.
Some of them are quite flat. I didn't want to toss them and I have quite enough bolstering the sofa so I needed to figure out something else.
I Googled and Googled and Googled. All the websites I visited seemed to have the same five or 10 ideas. Okay...
One of the ideas was to re-use whatever stuffing was found inside the pillow.
I decided my bedrest pillow could use more filling. So I cut the store-cover off of one of the old pillows and pulled out the stuffing.
As I was pulling it apart (while watching one of my favorite movies, Jet Li's "The One"), I began to notice tiny white fibers covering everything dark in the vicinity. 😟
Ummm... Ewwww. 😱
I was almost done by then so I kept at it until the bedrest pillow was fully fluffed.
Then I got the lint roller and rolled every surface within a few feet of where my work had taken place.
Silly me for thinking I'd get it all. Now I know I need to vacuum because I'm itching like crazy! 😩
