The older unit was only 2-years old but one of the phones no longer had a ring sound and the speakerphone function was also gone.The new system took a full half day to re-enter numbers in the directory, rename the 2 units and still working on some quirks.

I sometimes think office stools are among the worst offenders, even when I was young the things used to give me a backache. I was always puzzled becuase I had thought they were expressly designed NOT to do that, but to help your back feel better.

The back hits us all wrong. I have to put pillows in the seat to raise me up higher. The top of the seat is usually filled to capacity with fluff which shoves our head forward. My current chair is over 20 years old but I finally have it comfortable enough.kdenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07504994174268834559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8984234400935984998.post-27387027575494479972017-06-26T12:17:32.275+01:002017-06-26T12:17:32.275+01:00Luke sounds like a true blessing!

She and I are alike, every day I do something and remember that was the way she did it, consequently the chair is still in good nick. <br /><br />Charlie seems to get more adorable every day although sometimes he freaks out and I don't know why.

It has seen a whole lot of abuse and even the seat part is getting lumpy. I only recline when I have to put my feet up, would prefer to just sit and put up the feet but the chair puts me at an odd angle then.
