Lost the will to live

Took a day's vacation yesterday and Mrs P, Baby C and I went to Orlando. The purpose was twofold, first to get her engagement fixed at the jewelers as she had lost a diamond. Secondly a visit to the new Ikea store. Mrs P is an Ikea virgin and was overawed at everything. We spent about 4 hours in the store and by hour 3 I had lost the will to live. Mrs P was asking my opinion on things and I was unable to utter anything except a non-committal grunt. I should have grunted louder as we managed to spend $1000 on stuff.

Today has been a day of flat pack assembly and 3 bar stools and an end table later everything has gone together ok. Let's hope the 2 bookcases are equally easy.
