Bringing it home

Thursday was the day for the big move of the glass cabinets. First, Dennis, Toby, Jorge, Eugenio and Homero met in Pacific Beach to pick up the large curio cabinet and bring it home in the horse trailer. I stayed home because I couldn't watch. Then, later in the afternoon Dennis and Homero picked up the smaller cabinets in Del Cerro and brought those back and set them up in the craft room.

The large curio cabinet stayed in the horse trailer until Friday when we had a lot of people to help move it upstairs. It was a wonder nothing broke.

They drove the horse trailer around back and lifted the curio cabinet over the deck railing. It all went flawlessly...the cabinet is in one piece. Check it out.




Craigs List Shopping

On Wednesday, Dennis and I drove out to Pacific Beach and Del Cerro to look at some glass cabinets for the craftroom. We liked what we saw, left deposits and will be back tomorrow to pick them up. One is a beautiful, large curio cabinet which will be great to display my glass pieces and jewelry. It is all beveled glass on the front and sides, with glass shelves inside. The other two are identical low glass cabinets, also for displaying jewelry or other items. This is great because I really don't have any place to display my work. The hard part will be getting the furniture back here without breaking any of the glass.

We also went back to IKEA to buy another bookcase to put back to back with the other one we bought. I'll be using these pieces to store all my yarn. Anybody want yarn?

Movie Tuesday

DO NOT see this movie: Old Boy. If we had looked at the director and writers instead of only the actors, we would have known it would be stupid. Spike Lee was the director. When was the last good movie he directed? The writers were  (manga), , which would explain the Japanese (Korean? or?) gang scenes and oriental flavor in general. It was bad. Don't go.
