Tuesday, August 9th, 2011 10:49 pmI sanded, washed, and painted 3 coats on each side of a Besta shelf and 3 Billys.
That, is 12 hours of work. I know in other parts of the world you can probably not get a coat of paint to dry in 10 minutes, but I was in the sun. Case in point: I have drank 3 pitchers of lemon water and have only peed once today. It was a very small pee.
Another "Oh God This Shelving Project is DOOMED! DOOMED!" moment: When you paint Ikea shelves, they warp.
2 more Billys to go. One shelf has a buster corner, which
randomdreams says he can repair.
AND the library featured in the month's Martha Stewart Living Magazine is the same color as my library. Obsessive minds think alike?

I made Panzanella and fruit salad for dinner. Salads from 2 bowls.
It was so very good for one of those "hmmm the bread, tomatoes, and strawberries must be used NOW..." evenings.

randomdreams got home he put The Best of Gary Glitter (it's a 2 CD set!) on the stereo and put together the Besta. I provided puppy help and asked if he wanted to be in my gang (he does).
