Sofa Table

Last week I put this together on one of those
days that things were feeling ok....


Was actually a simple project, or should have been but
not having the space to build things like this was
really hard on my old body.

I managed to get it stained.
And through out the week I got it polyed to
protect it.

Finally moved it to the living room yesterday and
this evening I finally got it behind the couch.



Not sure what I want to sit on it but for now this will be it.
The light is one of two that my mom and dad picked up in
an antique shop when they married.


Today, managed to wash a few dishes, unload the dishwasher
and sweep the kitchen floor. That is about it. The fibro is acting
up along with fatigue so I am just doing what I have learned
to do best. Lay around. Slept a lot today and my bud is
doing a great job at being here with me.

Thanks for stopping in,

I am sorry you feel so bad. I do love the sofa table. The lamp is a perfect addition. Hope you have a better day.

I hope you feel better. On your worst days I swear you sometimes do more than I manage when I'd rather write. At least my muse is back! ~grin~ Nice project, my dear. And I'm glad you have Dakota.

Good for you. Very good size. I had Rick help me with my new IKEA table. Easy for him, not so much for me, so hat's off!

You are very handy at DYI, like the idea of this. I have nowhere for ornaments, but they do make dust!! Diane

The Rest of Today

Image
After my trip to town today,  visit with the doc, stopping  and picking up breakfast I  headed home.  I had dropped Dakota off at mom's for the day. He was going  to spend the day  playing with Klohe and Cheyenne. While he was hanging at mom's Lily and I chilled all day.  So much to do but I can't seem to get it in gear. Later....I had an apt for a hair cut. But I left out early to stop  at the  Mystic Heart. I picked up some healing stones there.  Entering the store I read this sign... haha Then while in there I saw this sign. From there I headed to see  Kelley, my hair stylist. This is what I was shooting for. Course, it will look different on  me due to hair color and  texture of hair.  I am good with it. I got to Heads Up a bit early  so Kelley still had a young boy she was working on and his dad after him. I had to snap a pic of Kelley making sure that I got

Hot Water Heater Mishaps

Image
 As I stated the hot water heater sprung a leak, from the bottom.  My younger brother came to help  with the issue. Problem, the  value at the bottom where you screw in  the hose to drain the tank, was  all clogged up.  It sets so close to the bottom  that it is hard to slip a  bucket under to catch water if we were to get the clog undone. There was no moving it till water was drained off the tank. We opened the top value, and leaned it over to drain into buckets. I have a great big  plastic tub, like this one. We filled it by leaning the  hot water heater over. Finally got enough off to be able to slid onto the two wheeler  and move out of the garage. Once we had it there,  we lowered it to the ground and let it finish with the drain. Mark went to Lowes and got another one, installed it and  had me up and running. The damage had been done though. With the unit on the  other side of the BR, water came under the wall and flooded the BR,  and the carpet in the den.  Yes, the same two roo
