Box to Lanai, JW, More Light, Finally hopefully
I had a very busy weekend as predicted. My top priority was to unpack the two large boxes that were sitting on the lanai to put together my outdoor furniture I bought last week. Ali and Shugs had bought a very similar set and warned me the assembly was challenging. I have put together a lot of stuff in the last few months so I was confident I could handle it.
The instructions were not great and none of the parts had the identifying sticker on them that the instructions indicated they should, perhaps that is why this set was at Big Lots. The lack of marking slowed down the process at first but I eventually figured it out. It took me between 2-3 hours to get everything assembled but I am happy with the result, it fits the corner of the lanai well. The project was not completely done however. Part two was cutting apart all of the cardboard from the boxes. That itself took damn close to an hour to complete.
Saturday night Christine and I went to see the fourth John Wick movie. Christine loves action movies as I do so we both enjoyed the film which was nothing but crazy action the entire two hours. Of course none of it had anything resembling remote plausibility but we both enjoyed it anyway. B+
Sunday I replaced the three boring and dim light fixtures that remained inside the house with the same LED lights I used at my old house. I get them from Costco. They are only $30 each and I can install it in a little more than 10 minutes. I like the additional brightness they bring to the space.
Today the counters in the kitchen and master bathroom are scheduled to finally be installed. I really hope things go as planned and they are completely installed today. For around a month I have been dealing with the disruption of normalcy in the household. I need it to resume.
