Day 2083 Headless chicken syndrome

27th April 2023

It was all happening today, we needed to get the long dresser finished for Friday to post for the weekend shoppers. I had to sand the top ready for staining, and get a coat of sealer on it by the end of the day. Kelli was keen to get it on Marketplace early, so as soon as the top was dry, we carried it into the house to take pictures. I alway urge caution because there were some repairs to some of the drawers, plus more coats of finish had to be applied before I was happy with it.

So it was posted, and straight away it was snapped up, now I had to set a time when it would be available.

It is due to be collected at four pm on Saturday so I will have to make sure it’s done by then.

We had a call from the guy making the wooden part of the counter top to tell me that it was finish and ready for collection, great news.

After that we had a call from our designer to say that the worktop fabricator will call on Monday afternoon to do the templating, so I will have to fit the oven unit ready for them, so the pressure is building up.

On top of that I have been continuing the painting and assembly of more doors and drawer fronts, I was worn out mentally and physically by the end of the day.

I don’t know how Kelli will take having the kitchen disrupted for up to three weeks, it’s going to be challenging.
