A small miracle...

I know... you think that my actually blogging is the miracle.

Alas, it's much more practical than that!

After a miserable day, following a miserable week, I came home from Target with a gallon of cough medicine and a bag of Halloween candy. Anticipating sweet relief, I was less than impressed with this discovery...



Seems Cael was busy while I was gone. Yes, I left him with supervision, I'm just not certain where said supervisors were... Cael was caught with my fabulous green pen. Surprisingly, nobody thought to investigate where exactly he'd been happily illustrating, although everyone seemed to know he had colored "somewhere"... The couch, people! He colored on my couch!

I wish I could say I responded calmly and without any inappropriate words, but y'all would know I was lying. I did dig out the cleaner that came with the couch and read through the warranty. Go ahead, guess whether pen is covered....

Nope. With little faith and even less energy, I took to cleaning the couch.

Would you believe, it wiped right off?! Look at it! I'm sold on Enduro Suede. I used to long for leather... No more.


I think it almost makes up for the rest of the week. Almost.

WOW! Lucky Cael :) He just has to pay for the small heart attack he gave his mother, not the whole couch!
