So on Sunday night, I went in with the big trash can and cleaned up all the bits of stuffing and other debris while LMPP made pathetic noises which I translated as "I'm not done with that" and "That one's still good, really!"
When I got out of the shower, she was lying in the hall on top of two unshredded toys, nibbling on a third. Nobody is going to get Smaugette's hoard now!
Work is interesting right now. We've had a streak of people doing really dumb things, like forgetting to mail in paperwork, etc. There is also lots of work going on as the front counter area gets renovated. Most of the work is being done at night, but today maintenance was taking apart half of our file storage shelves and moving the other half.
Power tools on metal shelving made our court sound as if we should be answering the phones "Stormer's Tire and Lube, how may I help you?"
Yesterday was Call Day, so that's over for the month and we have Monday off, so I'm getting an oil change. For the first time since I bought Edgar, I am truly angry with Ford. The coolant light was on, so I bought universal coolant and then couldn't get any in the car because the fill opening was under the rigid part of the hood. I wound up using a kitchen funnel held at an extreme angle and my hand braced around it to catch any spills, all at 7 p.m. in my unheated garage. But the light went off today, so victory for me!

Beats doing it over a ditch in a country road. That was my late grandfather's favored method.
Ah yes, the not-so-good old days!
