flat pack.…..twice
I have been quiet for a few days but i have not been idle.….….well not all the time.
Valentine’s day was interesting.
at the weekend i decided to build …well go to Ikea and get a flat pack.….….……a set of drawers to go under my fridge and freezer to raise them up to? a better height?. so? i measure up carefully and collect a HEAVY box.….….…i empty the box in the car as it is way too heavy to carry into the house or even get out?of the car. i have an enjoyable time putting it all together despite feeling very ill due to eating something i have a sensitivity to, well i was having an enjoyable time till i turned blue, anyway i get it all together and IT DOSNT FIT.….….…..so much for my visual spatial? expertise.
so i get him upstairs to measure it all for me and we both set of to Ikea again, and get a nicer set of drawers?which will fit the space perfectly and it does. fortunately i love putting flat packs together.….though i did put the drawer runners in upside down.
and, the first set of drawers make a lovely seat in the dining-room , i had been looking for a chair but this is better, and there are the drawers in to for me to clutter.
this is the second time i have typed this today as the first one disappeared
off to Prestwick airport now to collect brother
