I found this chair on the side of the road. It was originally brown (I forgot to take a picture before I primed it). I took the seat cushion off (just flip the chair over and there are usually 4 screws on each corner to unscrew). I used the free paint from the paint store […]
Your Daily Dose
Shit happens. Just not where I want it to.
Potty training. I fucking hate it. Number 7 isn’t 2 yet, so it’s still acceptable for her to be in diapers. But Number 6 turned three years old in June. He’s in preschool. He’s supposed to be potty trained. He’s got the peeing down. The pooping, not so much. He still thinks the poop will […]
