Living with a crazy person
After 2 weeks, H3 is trying to finally move all the furniture back into the living room. He started today around 2:00. Of course I would help but first I decided that we should completely unload the entertainment center so we did not scratch the floor moving it. Unfortunately H3 had to unwire all the electronics so they could come out of the cabinet.
After he got them out of the cabinet, I realized it would be a good time to wipe the cabinet down and get to all the dust you can’t reach when it’s full. While I was dusting it, I started thinking about the chipped veneer around the bottom. That’s when I remembered that I had some veneer sheets in the storage room. I bought them over 3 years ago when I was going to refinish it. What better time to fix the veneer than when the cabinet is empty, right?
So I found the tools to remove all the veneer around the bottom and I put the new veneer on. But then it needed to be stained to match so I had to search for the right color. Finally, the veneer was fixed and we moved the cabinet into the living room. It looked better than ever, except the top looked a little dull compared to the new bottom. (Your following were I am going right!)
So I had to sand the top and put a fresh coat of stain and polyurethane on it. While I was at it I figured I would go ahead and spruce up the top of the library table that had a few water marks on it. I mean you can’t have one piece looking good and not the other. So now it is 10:30 pm and H3 is just now getting the electronics back into the cabinet. And in the past 8 hours that is the only piece of furniture that has made it back into the room.
He is either going to kill me or leave me. I am not sure which one yet.
