Why does decorating require so much upheaval?
We had our lounge decorated over the weekend and it's taken 4 days in all to get back to some normality.
First you have to remove all the bits and pieces, like ornaments, pictures and the other things you've accumulated over the years. Who knew that a woman (my dear wife) could collect so many cat ornaments over 27 years.
Then the furniture has to be moved out of course. Decorating took 2 days, not bad to be fair. But today everything has to be moved back in, which obviously requires all the electrical stuff to be hooked up, Hi-Fi, computer, TV etc. ![](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/253164678/SadFace.gif)
I'm knackered. In my next life as far as my lounge is concerned, I'm going for the minimalist look. ![](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/253164678/Yes.gif)
Still, at least it looks nice when it's done.
