8th March 2023
There was a piece of furniture that had been buried under piles of crap for a couple of years. It was given to us by someone who didn’t have the time or the inspiration to finish it. I thought it was interesting, but it had a missing drawer. It was oak, and I always wanted to finish it, but other things always took priority.
We finally agreed to drag it out and see if we could pass it on to someone who could do something with it.
I took some pictures and it was posted on Marketplace, for some outrageous price.
This was the excuse we needed to give the garage a bit of a clean up, I managed to get a fire going to burn the offcuts.
I had another mission to accomplish, to make the door frames for the large cabinet.
I used the wood from the old doors, and used pocket hole screws to join it all together, not the solution of a cabinet maker, but I had to build them quick, and by the time I plug the holes, fill and paint, nobody would be none the wiser.
It was also when I didn’t have the faintest idea what day it was.
“Where was Tuesday?” I enquired
Kelli, trying to be tactful, explained where Tuesday is places in the week.
“ I know that, but where did it go, did I sleep through it?
There was no answer to that.
Kelli was busy looking out for more furniture, tomorrow looks like being an interesting collection day.
Another Lifetime to go
