We’ve all been there before with assemble-it-yourself furniture from a certain Swedish company – you think it’s going to be a snap until something was put on backwards because you didn’t read the vague instructions in enough detail and suddenly, you’re disassembling and going back to that critical step two. Joey’s dad figures he can handle this one and I suppose he does show a little creativity with this project. You know the furniture has been intelligently designed when it functions as intended even without unpacking it. Oh and yes, Sängbord is apparently Swedish for “bedside table” in case you were wondering.

Klunk!
Watching your pet cat and stuffed bear in a heated argument over how they are going to decorate and rearrange your bedroom proved to be the final straw for Joey. I’m sure he’ll come around, because, well… he’d better lay claim to some real estate soon or he’ll be doing homework in his closet.
Bed Time
If you’ve ever moved you’ve been there. It’s a stressful, exhausting, overwhelming experience – even if you aren’t moving to northern Manitoba or your stuffed bear didn’t just start talking to you. A smart person once gave me this tip: put the bed together first. On moving day, when you run out of steam, that’s it – you’re done. You collapse on the spot. Been there, got that t-shirt, Joey.
