I can't imagine it would stay nice and white very long outdoors. Of course, if you have young kids or pets it probably would stay nice and white very long either.

It is intended for indoor use but because of the wood frame, I think it would go better outside. I can't get it right now but if I did, I would have it covered when not being used.

My wife tested positive on the rapid test. We're saving the other one for if I start feeling sick and so far, I don't.
She's been sick for a couple of days but has been starting to feel a bit better.

I hope that you get better soon!

Not sure what it is or what it would be used for. I cannot see the practicality of it. I couldn't lay down on it, as it appears way too small for my frame. And it doesn't look too comfortable either. But I am a bit of an odd duck in that I do like my furniture to be exactly as long as me. And longer if humanly possible.

Looks more like display furniture than functional furniture.

It would look great with gray herringbone cover (cushion w/ color appropriate pillows). Like the look, maybe good middle ground would be a screened in porch.

Is “buttcheecks” one word?
Or should I spread them apart?

Opening things sure is a pain when you bite all of your fingernails off.

Take it easy--I hope you feel better soon!

I feel pretty similar today to how I felt Thursday, betting I'll pretty much feel normal tomorrow. I know even asymptomatic people can still spread it so I will follow work's guidelines and not go in until Friday. Wonder how much this will affect the efficacy of the 3 Pfizer shots I got.

You should build up some decent antibodies. My Dr. told me I should be well-protected for six months after I tested positive before I needed to get the booster aka shot #3.

When did you get the booster aka shot #3?

[Batman1980]

Last September and we're 2.5 years into this so I was starting to think I was just naturally immune to it.

It can be extended to act as a bed with a length of 79 inches so big enough for most people. Not that one would want to use it as a bed. I would use it as a place to lounge while reading a book outside. I'd lay down and hang my legs over the side. I might use it as an indoor sofa but I'd probably go with a more traditional sofa for the living room.
This is my old sofa which I absolutely loved but no longer have

You get it. I like the way you think

You should be good for a while I would think. I would still check in with your doctor once you're in the clear and see when they suggest going for the second booster, if it's even needed.

[Batman1980]

I think only those over 50 are currently allowed the 2nd booster of the vaccine, guess they're letting the rest of us just live with what we've got already.

Right. I figure things could change within the next 6 months or so. There’s a strong possibility they end up recommending that all adults get the second booster.

[Batman1980]

I wouldn't be surprised if it becomes mandatory for healthcare workers and students and then they make it optional for everyone else.

I connected a digital antenna to my 4K TV and it occurred to me now -- what settings should I set my TV when watching local channels? I just left it on Theater mode, but was hoping to get feedback from others.

Thanks.

You’ll probably get better feedback in the Displays section. What kind of TV do you have? I would select standard and see how that looks for your regular channels. You can also do a custom/calibrated setup and tweak things as needed.

I always dialed in my TV's to my tastes for movies and just left it alone. Never felt the need to switch between modes when watching movies or regular TV. As Sweet Brown once said "Ain't nobody got time for that!".

I have read on a few forums where people would have a Standard and Theater setting for films, HDR, SDR, etc.
