Redid my old dresser again as the Polycrylic finish yellowed (a sickly green tint over the blue base) and the new place is much brighter, so I decided to match it to the radio cabinet that is the same age give or take a couple of years. The uneven gaps are more noticeable with the light color.

Also, that Polycrylic was really tough to sand off! Had to go down to 50 grit and it still ate quality paper—cheap paper wasn't even worth using.

I love junk.

The guest bathroom was extra boring with no light in there. I just put a window in the brick wall and taught Kate how to do tile, showed her a few ideas. She did most of the rest of it with very little help from me.

Then the girls wouldn't use that tub for showers they kept stealing my walk in so we let them pick the one they wanted

the neighbors complained to the city about a pallet of stone I had in the driveway so i brought home fourteen tons of boulders and dumped them in the middle of the front yard and left them there for nine months. The weather was really nice one day so I got otu there with a shovel and finished the whole thing in two days. the yard was just really flat and boring and the flower bed was only about a foot wide. i used the pavestone to make a retaining wall and the boulders to make a new legit flower bed. Then slowly planted all of this stuff after i brought one of the tractors home and scraped the lawn out and graded it

Your neighbors sound like people with nothing better to do than be wieners.

then there was the time i thought i could "modify" the couches so it fit in the room a little better. any way I bought new couches instead. Things don't always go according to plan or whatever

I found my car keys though

The kids had my Bose locked in the spare room today so I fixed my old Curtis Mathis. I just need to fix the equalizer now. I put these speakers in the attic and it works great. I can hear this at the park around the corner now. The girls should have left my little wave thingy alone. This phone mic sucks

Just built this for someone on request. 700 gallon stock tank, above ground sand filter, I kind of want one now. Skin it in cedar. It ought to shut the girls up about me building a pool for a few more seasons. I could put two jets and a skimmer on that easy. This is officially the smallest pool I have ever built now

I brought this outside just so I could catch the setting sun on it and I totally forgot. If is determined to be just a dream catcher.
