A couple of days of projects, results in one tired puppy.

This was how my livingroom was arranged and at its neatest
It was seldom this neatly organized for long.
More and more stuff unpacked, less and less space, couldn't
Get to my plants easily enough to enjoy or water them, SO

I spent two hours yesterday, first moving my keyboard to the
Other side of the room (behind me) so I would have room
To move.

I rearranged some of my plants, making a small amount
More space. Then, the Keyboard back in front.

Then Today

Medicine chest snapshot.JPG
This is how my "Medicine chest/TV Stand" looked in my bedroom.
It sat atop a wide board, that once was the top of a computer desk,
The medicine chest being the Hutch from a different computer desk.
They sat atop an antique Mahogany dresser.
Both top elements were far too wide for my current smaller bedroom.
SO

Emptied of all contents

I had enlisted the aid of my neighbor, who also helps me move my
Music gear for performances (he is 10 yrs older than me, but doesn't have
The health issues I now experience)
A more hard headed man I don't think I have ever met.
Before he got here, I had moved all this stuff and set that hutch top
Down onto the floor (even with my bum hip)

I had TRIED my best to get him to lets remove that top board
(It's held together with cams, it would have been simple )
So that there would only be ONE CUT, resulting in ONE
Continuous board across the top, but NOOO!!! He
Had to make two cuts, then cut again because he got off
My line (this is all being done with a hand saw)
I paid him $40

So after all was said and done, the center section was excised,
The two halves screwed together, and Voilà!

Reassembled with a much smaller footprint in my room.
