Pine begone!

Also, paint the rest of the room, as I only managed a first coat on half the room this evening.

Yeah, we thought we’d leave the washing machine in the middle of the floor. Making a statement, you know.

Kidding, obviously. We need to adjust the back left “leg” to make it stable and level and we couldn’t get at it. We’ll have to give it another try.

  1. Remarkable what a lick of paint can do to change the look and feel of a room. Good, practical sollution.
    In other matters: could you please find a moment to send me a new password? I locked myself out (yes, again).
