Here is how hanging my new bamboo blinds went tonight:
- Take blinds out of box. Knock over glass of water. Scare dogs.
- Clean up water. Check on dogs now hiding in bedroom.
- Open blinds to look for instructions.
- Read first note on instructions "do no open blinds"
- Note that drill is needed.
- Spend 10 minutes looking for drill.
- Give up. Use a nail and a hammer instead.
- Lift blind to window. Realize the curtains need to be taken off.
- Break curtain rod in attempt to remove it.
- Screw in hanging hooks.
- Hang blind. Realize it is crooked.
- Redo #10. Hang blind. Be very proud because it is perfect.
- Lower blind.
- Realize the curtain brackets make it impossible to lower all the way.
- Give up. Watch Hook.
Rufio! Rufio!

ReplyDeleteWhy didn't you just have The Guy do it?
QWP: I said the same thing when I saw it was on. Of course, I was alone. And said it to the dogs.
ReplyDeleteKID: I thought of that. But he'd had a bad week at work and I wanted to be able to do it myself. Next time, he's doing it regardless.
Everytime I read your blog I come closer to the realization that we're exactly the same person...which is sort of creepy but also good because if we were the same person I would have two cool sisters.
ReplyDeleteThat would be creepy if we were the same person. Of course, then I would be married to a hot foreign guy. Which would be okay. Trade you two sisters for a husband?
ReplyDeleteCome on, you know you could never trade Lyn for a husband.
