Today I finally attacked a room that desperately needed attention! I dreaded it but boy do I feel better now. When we finished the school year I purposefully tried to stay away from my schoolroom/den. I need the break too. During the year I spend ALOT of time there.
Anyway, shortly after the summer started my honey Aaron hurt his back in a fire. He was in alot of pain and had lots of trips to the chiropractor. My in-laws previously lent us an inversion table to help him stretch out his back (years of fire department and EMS can really take its toll). This is definitely a piece of equipment that is hard to find a good spot for. It sat in the garage for a little bit. When he hurt his back in the fire he needed to use it almost everyday. So we moved it to the den so he wouldn't have to hang upside down in the garage. The inversion table turns him upside down and stretches out his back. He loves it. My honey looks like a bat! I tried to take his picture but ....he didn't think that was very funny. Oh, well:) You can use your imagination.
This inversion table is a weird shape. We planned to move it back to the garage but I didn't want him to have to hang upside down in the hot garage...so I got rid of some desks that were too small for JD and Georgia and moved some furniture around and Wha La! I have my schoolroom back and he can hang upside down as much as he wants. AND...he's not driving me batty...ha, jkjk.
I can finally think straight. I have all my curriculum and all my supplies. Now I can get organized and ready to start next week! Eek!!
I love my Honey Bat and my re-organized school room!
I wish I could hang upside down - not because I hurt my back doing anything extraordinary like fighting fires but because I sit in front of a computer most of the day. Sitting will take its toll also. I'm sure there's a statistic out there to back me up. Have you seen the Simpsons episode when Homer "invents" something that puts chiropractors out of business? It's a metal garbage can tipped on its side. All you have to do is lay on it. I don't have one of those either.
