We handled living in a 200 sq-ft one-room studio apartment for 6 months fairly well. However, the time was not without its frustrations and brief moments of where we could have:
a. Screamed.
b. Booked same-day one-way tickets to Florida.
c. Gone a little loopy.
Fortunately, we settled for c. (with maybe a teensy bit of a. as well). Here’s a c. moment for you from 2 months into our time in the Cool Studio.
But don’t worry about Cool Mum. She’s perfectly fine now and wears CB’s Elmo costume on her head only when the situation calls for it.

I think Cool Boy may have been as scared as I was watching that!! I’m glad to hear CM’s resorting to this less these days.

Oops! That was me and Elizabeth was signed in. Doh!
He may have felt like he was watching a really bad production of Sesame Street Live.
And just for the record, I think CM is a pretty resourceful girl and sometimes you just do what you have to do to… even if that means wearing Elmo on your head
She is VERY resourceful. Sometimes to the point where I cringe a little when she says that she has an idea.
