Day 4.3(b) Boom Da Da Boom

So silly,
BUT I GOT A PIECE OF WOOD SANDED!

One of the two plywood tops for the desk drawer units.
Once I figure out where to put the printer and the scanner, I'll do the other one--and once my fingers stop tingling.

2:34 pm: Happy to report the second one is now sanded, too. I just need to figure out how to do the edges and I'm all set to start staining them.

4:44 pm: Hooray! They're stained. Norm would not have been happy with my knee vice grip technique to remove the paint on the sides, but hey.

And so with a vision of a Hot Fudge Sundae in my head I think I will let go of the blue wall. After all, if I want blue, there's always a table cloth. We'll see. Still thinking about it (and getting strangely hungry....)
