Industrial accidents...

Yeah, here's one for the record books...while I was waiting for my hair to dry, I was finishing sanding on a piece of furniture I was painting for Sisters' when it happened...
WOOSH...a strand of hair got sucked in the air vent of the sander...
now mind you, in all the years I've been doing this biz this freakish thing has never happened.
It won't budge, it's totally wrapped around the turny-thingy...
NOW WHAT...

note...see NUT sign above head...

ELECTRICIAN TO THE RESCUE...
my daughter and her friend came rushing(LAUGHING) to the rescue...
you know that this is gonna be one of those things that they never let you forget...
walking around the house trying to get things done so you can go to work,
with a sander plastered to the side of your head,
like typing on the computer with one hand...nuff said,
thank the Universe I didn't have to pee...whew...

I couldn't get the screws to turn with one hand to take the beast apart, so the axe was my last desperate thought...
not really, just thought it made a funny twist to the plot...
but as Jody and Piper managed to get it opened and my hair untwisted from around the cylinder, now to put the tool back together, normal again...
right???
Now do you think a lesson will be learned...
of course, but I'm sure I'll do it again, but more watchful the next round.

Off to Sisters'...

I wish the Victorian lampshade craze of a few years back was still going strong, but alas, it's faded away to only a few astute souls buying in...right Cathie C....

YUMMMMM...
Seven bars sold before I left the shop...

See, I told ya I had another lil' stand up there, bought from two different dealers at two different shops, both from the same piece of furniture...
a vanity separated to make two end tables...
SWEET!

and a totally cool cupboard upstairs at Sister's Garden and Bloom...

All in the day of...
The Fabric of Sweet Repose...
STOP LAUGHING!!!
