Thank you @tonyes! I hope you're having a great week as well!

No, we opted out of all those extras. We did get a couple power hubs to charge our phones though.

What a cool brother! I once owned several milk-crates full of vinyl (the LPs fit perfectly in those old plastic milk crates) but sold all those records when I moved to Minnesota in 1995. They were so heavy

That is hilarious (and incredibly creative)! I can't believe how much they look like aliens. I'll be looking for alien brethren in our floors now. Lol.

Thank you!

Thank you! Online security is such a problem nowadays. Fortunately it doesn't look like anything else has been breached. There was an online data breach that leaked millions of Gmail passwords and I assume

Thank you Lizelle! It's good to know someone noticed my absence! The hardest part of the couch assembly was getting the fabric covers on all the pieces. My hands were sore for days afterwards. The fabric
