This Thai resident wouldn't have any idea how else to place his drowning furniture if the water level kept rising.
Getting around by boats or walking on makeshift elevated pathways is a common sight after nearly two months of flooding.
But people are getting tired of the water, and want their normal lives back.
(SOUNDBITE) (Thai) 51-YEAR-OLD NONTHABURI RESIDENT, SAMART SOIPRASERT, SAYING:
"I'm stressed. Although this place floods every year, it has never been this bad. I'm so stressed because so many things have been damaged."
Thai Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra visited the Chao Phraya river on Sunday to oversee an engine starting ceremony.
The government has called on one thousand boats to keep their engines running to help speed up the water flow.
(SOUNDBITE) (Thai) THAI PRIME MINISTER, YINGLUCK SHINAWATRA, SAYING:
"The project at Khlong Lad Po has helped to release 50 million cubic metres of water. Even if it is a small amount compared to the water from the river this measure is considered to be efficient and worth doing."
Nearly 300 people have been killed since July in the worst floods to hit Thailand in 50 years.
Flooding has devastated a third of the country and caused about $3 billion in damage.
