House Work

I wish I could say I had a restful weekend.  But instead I worked the days away.  Some office work brought home and the dreaded house work.  I swear this little house will never be done.  Almost 2 years ago I thought buying a fixer upper would be fun.  What was I thinking?  Lol The new floors are done and I'm playing around with area rugs etc.   The living room this morning

The dining room with a new area rug. (Which is eventually going in the living room when I find "just the right one" for the dining room).  Try as I might to keep Abby off that rug it has become her favorite spot!

Just a peek at the floor in the den.  It's still a work in progress.  Want to make it into a little office but still looking for the perfect old antique table to use a desk

I've been unhappy with my tv stand since I moved here.  First I had a corner stand which I hated.  Then I used an old antique dresser painted blue.  Hated that too.  Then I found a tv stand I liked and ordered it.  Naturally it was back ordered but arrived last week.  The reviews said easy to assemble.  The instructions said it was best to do with 2 people.  Clearly they meant 2 licensed contractors!   OMG, it took me over 3 hours.  A big chunk of that was realizing after I screwed the legs in they were on the wrong side.  And I really screwed them in tight.  I would say it was about 45 minutes to loosen those damn screws and do it again.  Argghhhhhhhhhh, the nasty words were flying!   But it's done and in place.  Finally!

 

Now I realize I need a bigger tv.  Lol
