I'll be honest, I'm pretty good at building Lego; Not great, just good. Good at following instructions, good at clicking those little bits and pieces together and generally good at avoiding some of the terrible Lego-afflictions that can come with the hobby of building it; Health issues like Lego fatigue which comes about from long hours of building Lego and Lego thumb which one gets by pushing all those parts together with one's thumb. I "Lego" at a pretty good level. Just the facts.
However, sometimes I need some help, or so Cleo the cat thinks. You can see her here, employing every trick in the book to avoid looking at the camera as she knew I wanted a good picture for my blog. As soon as the camera went away she looked right at me in that, I will stare you down until you get me food, pat me or let me sit on your lap look...It worked...She got some pats. Humans are so predictable.
You can see I've laid out the next stage of the build of my Mack Anthem on my Lego build-table. I use those little box lids as they are shallow sided, white inside so parts can't hide and easy to cover if I have to stop building for some reason. I don't know what others do, but it works for me...And Cleo obviously as she's pictures here giving it the paw of approval.
One of the most enjoyable things in our lives are our cats and they are rarely too far away when we are home, even when I'm building Lego as you can see. Our cats are like people to us, in fact we probably treat them better than people...We don't get mad with them, let them run the household [it's their's after all] and work our lives out around them. We'd not have it any other way because they are a valued part of our family.
So, tonight, as I start phase two of the Mack Anthem build I've got a wing man a wing-cat called Cleo...Someone to blame if I get some of the build wrong and have to start over...Although in reality, with a wing cat like Cleo how could I possibly get it wrong?!
