We used to call it the "Living Room" but due to Wear and Tear of all that "living" the room is now in DIRE need of a few NEW items (mainly a new couch and a new rug). So, the Big Bonus to a old rugs and old couches that already have STAINS in Abundance; you no longer have to WORRY about spilling on them! (been there, done that!) Despite a No-Food-in-the-Living-Room-RULE the upholstery has taken a beating over the last 14 years! Our "No Eating in the Living Room" mandate also appears to be quite subjective! In other words, it applies to everyone BUT the Person who, at that very moment, would very much like to take THEIR sandwich or THEIR diet coke, etc. into the Living Room JUST THIS ONCE because surely you meant that rule for my other Siblings and NOT ME, right?!
So, in honor of a couch that needs an Upholstery Makeover and Carpet that needs Coit Cleaners, I hereby rename our Living Room the "No Worries" or "Hakuna Matada" Room! Since I'm planning to replace the couch and rug anyway, we might as well let everyone Kick Back, Snack Away, and Enjoy the last stages of these furnishings before their Imposed Retirement! Just don't try to extend the boundaries! "No Worries".....as long as you stick to the Rules!
