My Daddy and The Sofa

I talk about my father a lot on this blog, mostly because he is hilarious. Actually, I have a lot of fun with my whole family. Maybe even too much fun.

Just the other day we had to undergo a quick household renovation, in order to make some changes in Poppa Sye’s bedroom. Of course, I was more than happy to lend a ‘Helping Hand’. And by lending a ‘Helping Hand’ – I really just mean, I stood there, videotaping, and laughing.

Because let’s face it.

That’s what I do best.

I am proud to present yet another ‘Family Video’ to you, my dearest readers.

Please enjoy, My Daddy & The Sofa.

Yep.

That’s My Daddy!

    Oh, well, that took FOUR movers, and they took the door off the hinges, used a sledge hammer to widen the doorway and rebuilt the wall. There was NO way we were doing THAT again, to get it out!

    Thank you, Melissa. I am truly blessed.

    Your family is a hoot. Your dad is a class act, he should go live on stage with your son as his sidekick. And I love your laugh!!

    I’m thinking a chain saw might have been helpful!

    Your Daddy is so funny! He was goofing off and having fun with something that would have had my husband crabbing and spewing expletives!

    I must say… your father has excellent rhythm and tons of stamina. Your mother is a lucky woman;) You can thank me later for putting that image in your head.

  • http://mommamiameaculpa.com meleahrebeccah

    I wish I could hear YOUR laugh!

  • http://mommamiameaculpa.com meleahrebeccah

    I don’t know HOW my father keeps his sense of humor through all of this. MOST people WOULD be cursing!

  • http://mommamiameaculpa.com meleahrebeccah

    Gee, thanks, Brooke!
    *gags*

    Yay! I finally saw it!! Your daddy is hysterical!!

  • http://mommamiameaculpa.com meleahrebeccah

    YAY!!!

  • Rachele

    The kids came over when they heard the video start. they thought it was pretty funny and we all cheered when the job was finished. then the 7 year old got an extra chuckle for the ending. Now he wants to know what f-u-c-k means. Thanks for that. I’ll make sure to read when the kids aren’t home from now on.

    Oh snap! Sorry, Rachele! My bad!

    That sawing noise made my teeth ache. How did you get the sofa into the room?

  • http://mommamiameaculpa.com meleahrebeccah

    Oh god. That’s a LONG story!

  • Teeni

    Your dad is too funny. After reading the last post and then this one, I realize that it must be his ability to use humor that saves him from being that guy you read about in the paper who chops up his own family and then shoots himself. LOL. Just kidding!!!!!! Seriously, I love that you are surrounded by such wonderful people and I know your dad wouldn’t have it any other way. You are truly blessed, my friend and I could not be happier for you! :)

  • HeSaidHisTelephoneNumberWas911

    I don’t know what has me laughing more, your Dad, or you laughing at him. Another great video effort by you, and a herculean effort on Daddy’s part just surviving his loving family. I love it.

    Now I see where you get your spirit from, my dear!

  • http://mommamiameaculpa.com meleahrebeccah

    For real!! If I was him? I would have lost my mind and sense of humor – YEARS AGO!

  • http://mommamiameaculpa.com meleahrebeccah

    I laugh AT him – all day, every day!

    Nuts! I love your dad’s moves as he’s sawing. Also, how the heck did you get the sofa into the room?

  • http://mommamiameaculpa.com meleahrebeccah

    I love his One-Handed move! And the photo a the very end!

    Oh, well, it took FOUR movers, they took the door off the hinges, and used a sledge hammer to widen the doorway. We rebuilt the wall once the sofa was in his bedroom. There was NO way we were doing THAT and AGAIN, just to get it out! Sawing it was MUCH easier!

    Oh Oh I got three free pairs of PJ jeans coupons and I have no use for them, do you want them???????

    Very funny video…I didn’t even know sofas could last for 60 years!

    Now later today I’m going to have to go read the rest of this series.

    What a great way to start my Saturday morning (sorry, I’m a little behind).

  • http://zivainferno.blogspot.com Ziva

    Holy crap, your daddy is hilarious! And I can’t believe they used an axe to cut the thing in half! Freaking awesome is what it is.

  • http://www.offendedblogger.com The Offended Blogger

    Ahahahaha I am seriously crying laughing here. That was hilariousness +10!! Thank GOD it didn’t go horribly awry haha!

  • http://www.shoot-me-now.com Katherine Murray

    First of all, would you be offended if I RESPECTFULLY told you that your dad is HOT? Secondly… you said SHIT in front of your Dad!!!! Made me laugh outloud. I am WAY to sheltered. This video CRACKED ME UP!. Just watching someone saw a sofa… and yet it was absolutely HYSTERICAL. Where do you get your music for your videos? Loved that too! This is a keeper for sure!

  • Anonymous

    Don’t they have power saws in your par of the world? Tell your Dad he has a bit too much posterior involvement to be a successful sofa sawyer. Hysterical video.

    HAHHAHAHAH!

  • http://mommamiameaculpa.com meleahrebeccah

    Me either!

  • http://mommamiameaculpa.com meleahrebeccah

    That’s okay! I’m always behind!

  • http://mommamiameaculpa.com meleahrebeccah

    Thanks Ziva! It took a while – but we got it done!

  • http://mommamiameaculpa.com meleahrebeccah

    Thanks Chelle B!

  • http://mommamiameaculpa.com meleahrebeccah

    Thanks Katherine.
    I would NOT be offended if you told me my dad was hot.
    I hear THAT all the time!

    I get my music for the vidoes in the program called iMovie.

    And, yes we curse in front of each other around here.
    Even my son drops the Fbomb.

    HA! Thanks Bud!

    I laughed out loud when I watched this video…my husband and I had a couch to dispose of in a tiny apartment we lived in. Our landlord said we could put anything we wanted to in the dumpster, as long as it fit. We decided to MAKE IT FIT. Valuable lessons learned:
    1) Free furniture that you hate is no bargain. If your gut instinct is to give the movers $40 to take it back downstairs and ‘make it disappear’, go with it.
    2) Ethan Allen sofas, even spindly Gramama’s house-looking ones, are steel-reinforced battleships of doom.

    Ahahahahhahahahaha! So true, and so funny!

  • http://injaynesworld.blogspot.com/ Jayne

    Of course I’m left wondering how it ever got in the bedroom to begin with. Did they just build the house around it?

    You guys sure know how to have a good time. ;)

    Thanks Jayne.

    It was NOT easy getting that sofa IN or OUT of this house.
    But, it sure was FUN!

    So hilarious. He must have been exhausted after all that sawing. Your Dad should have his own TV show. It would be a hit!!!

  • http://mommamiameaculpa.com meleahrebeccah

    Oh, hell yes!

  • http://www.cardiogirl.net cardiogirl

    That’s a HUH-YUGE sofa. And I see a new cardio craze ready to sweep the nation.

    Hold on, is that an ax that your son is using? And the applause was FANTASTIC! Well done, sister!

  • http://mommamiameaculpa.com meleahrebeccah

    Oh yeah, we had to break out the ax!

  • http://www.mikesturf.net/blog Mike

    Someone get that man a chainsaw!! Was the house built AROUND the sofa?? How did you get it in there to begin with? LOL!

    Nevermind… I just read through the comments and found my answer. Holy shit.

    Your videos are hilarious. I’ve very much missed reading/watching your stuff. I’m a very poor blog-buddy, I know. *blush* I will try to keep up on a more regular basis now that I have my “project” up and running! (Also, thanks for stopping by! You cracked my new blog’s comment-cherry!) :)

  • http://mommamiameaculpa.com meleahrebeccah

    Hooray! It’s nice to see YOU back here again.
    And I’m loving your new website!
