Cleaned couch ๐Ÿ›‹️

 This spring the couch looked like this.

 So today I vacuumed and kitchen, entryway, and office.  I also mopped the office and kitchen and entry way with Lysol floor cleaning bottle.  And a water vacuum to keep the dog hair mites out of the house ๐Ÿก and flying about out of the vacuum.  The water vacuum has a hepa filter and I also vacuumed out my other hepa filter with my rabbit air filter minus2.

It’s working a lot better now, and just prepping to rearrange the house ๐Ÿก thanks to Bryan for helping me move a couch ๐Ÿ›‹️ in the house ๐Ÿก August.7th at 8 pm at night.  They guy was helpful coming over to help me move it so late ⏰.



My last dog, Finn would sleep on the couch after a walks out in a wet field in mud and long grass. You were just dry off on the couch till they could come back inside or get some time to get wiped down.

He sort of ruined the couch ๐Ÿ›‹️ by couldn’t get rid of it because that was my first purchase from quitting smoking in 2007.  
Has quit smoking for six months and I bought a couch from Leon’s, as I was building houses in Construction. ๐Ÿฆบ 
It really was my first piece of furniture I bought, Living on my own.

Kim and I cleaned it and finally put it in the office, and it looks like a new couch ๐Ÿ›‹️.  Well it’s newer now that it’s been cleaned ๐Ÿงน.


A complete change from what it did look like, so it’s a huge success.  We think we could bring back couches from instinction to brand new as a business.  As long as it doesn’t have bed bugs.

๐Ÿชณ 

But it’s just been a hugely recover process for the couch.  A second chance you could say.  Looks amazing though a good change.  Just took some work to do and people have said it’s surprisingly good ๐Ÿ˜Š.  Looks way better and usually people don’t put in work to restore there stuff.


It made a special project for sure ๐Ÿ‘ 

I find it hard to see it back in the house after being in garage then the shed then garage to clean up. It’s been a rough start for the couch but a second life for it now.


It sounds like you've been through quite a journey with your couch! It's great to hear that you were able to clean it up and give it a new life, especially since it holds such sentimental value for you. It’s not just a piece of furniture; it represents a significant milestone in your life, like quitting smoking and living on your own.


It’s amazing how much a bit of cleaning and effort can transform something that seemed ruined into something that looks brand new again. Your idea of potentially turning this restoration experience into a business is intriguing! Bringing old couches back to life for others could be a unique niche, especially if you focus on quality cleaning and restoration.


Do you have any specific plans for your couch now that it's all cleaned up, or perhaps for the restoration business idea?

It’s in the office now, and I’m having a hard time leaving it to go back to bed.  ๐Ÿ›Œ it’s just restored, in my mind which I’m having lots of feelings and emotions about it. I didn’t think it’d be back in the house, honestly.

Plus 4 Celsius 6.1 km in a hour ๐Ÿƒ‍♂️

  Dixie and I go for a run  ๐Ÿƒ‍♂️ Dixie and I go for a run, redo a hill run down and up again. Kim picks me up after I climb the hill, I called her and asked since I was over my hour mark, originally I wanted to do 9 km in an hour but I managed to do six km instead.  I think it was the hill climb that did it.  I ran fully down hill no problem ๐Ÿ˜Œ We made good time.  For a hill run ๐Ÿƒ‍♂️   It looks like it will be 13 Celsius by noon but it feels warmer in the sun. ☀️  I took a picture by the usual spot that judge where the river is from other years and with that rain the last couple days it definitely looks a lot better than what it was a few weeks ago Dixie went off leash for a bit and went to the river. Must’ve been cold. I think for April water dip. I managed to bring my VO2 max up to good ๐Ÿ˜Š today, it’s the first time I’ve put it in the green since owning my second Garmin. So my goal right now is to get an endurance score over 5099 To move past ...

Walk and a run in to the vet

 Another adventure for Dixie,  she is an expensive dog….๐Ÿ• We enjoy ๐Ÿ˜Š our walks. Up top of the coulee you can see the university  Sonny and I go walking the south side dog park,  it tricky terrain for sure.  It’s nice ๐Ÿ˜Š for the scenery I think, yet a bit treacherous at times.  A person has to be careful let alone a dog ๐Ÿ• being careful. Here is Sonny and I smiling giving a thumbs up to the camera ๐Ÿ“ธ  The walk was decent though some difficult ๐Ÿ˜ž parts for today, Dixie is on a 14 day hiatus from walking.  She’ll probably want to go sooner rather than later. I think we’re stuck to just five minute poop ๐Ÿ’ฉ walks than the hour or two hour walks we usually do. I’m unsure when it happen but my guess is near the end of the walk when I noticed it. Dixie gets to close to the bushes today, I kept looking her over but noticed a different spot on her at the end of our walk.   Dixie goes through some bushes and gouged a piece out of her. Now Dixie has th...

A fawn born on our yard

A baby fawn was born on our lawn and it’s trying to warm up in the asphalt I’m guessing it’s still warm. We’re trying to give it space hopefully it mother comes by so we’re staying inside. I just went outside for a smoke and it crawled under the vehicle ๐Ÿš— lots of people are walking by it not noticing it then others are stopping.  Quite the thing to see. A few hours old… it’s still wet with mucus on it. With Kim’s super camera zoom is we could see Fish and wild life say to call in 24 hours if animals are left by moms  So we’re hoping people leave the fawn alone.  Although it’s a super cool ๐Ÿ˜Ž thing to see. I think it hoofs are still soft from being born that’s why it’s staying put since it went on that hard surface till it’s hoofs Harden. It crawled on its knees after the side walk and just hunkered down for a bit. Two hours from first spotting.  Still there hiding under the vehicle ๐Ÿš— it kind of a good spot of course there’s better picked spots but it’s half and hal...
