I have no business doing this, except..................

I put an offer on this tonight - without the mirror I think it would make a pretty gorgeous buffet!

John says - I'm NOT picking it up
John says - Good luck getting it yourself
Suzan says - But it's a steal - and I can do something incredible with it
John says - WE'RE MOVING IN 2 WEEKS - WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU???????????

It was on Kijiji ( which is an off shoot of Ebay here in Canada - not sure what the difference is because we also have Ebay but the great thing about Kijiji is that it tells you how many hits an item has generated )
which sort of gives you a clue on whether you have a chance of getting it - this was only viewed 19 times so the odds are pretty good.....................

Unlike this one - which is FREE -

Which has had 947 hits LMHO - and still I've inquired - because you never know - I may be the last one and they may go in that order when reading the emails, right?

I contemplated this at 30.00 - because you couldn't even make one for that price

But I can't think of a wall to put it against...................am I crazy?  Should I get it?

If any of you are going to be in the Montreal region this weekend - and you happen to have an extra set of handcuffs - could you come by do you think?
I need my hands to stay off the key board - just for another 2 weeks - until we move..............

Suzan says - Do you know where I can find a pair of handcuffs John?
John looks at me - and raises an eyebrow - You're not putting handcuffs on me dear
John says - You going to get kinky now?
Suzan looks at him in horror - IT'S TO STOP ME FROM GOING ON CRAIG'S LIST AND KIJIJI
John says - Sure they are Suzan
Suzan says - It was a JOKE John - I never thought of it for anything else!!!
John says - Sure it was Suzan

I'm 5 minutes away from buying this too - because in my mind it's already Paris Grey and Old White...........

and I'm thinking this

for 15 dollars would look great ( the measurements are perfectly in sync )
on top of this

Which reminds me of what I wanted to show you all along - except I got sidetracked with everything else.
I did some sanding tonight - it just looked a little to pristine

So a little bit here

and a little bit there

and

and finally

It's subtle - not a lot - but I like that it's grey peeping through instead of wood :)

Oh and it's only fair to tell you that John packed a bunch of boxes yesterday - woo hoo - if there was a contest I'd still win though..............just saying........................

Have a wonderful weekend everyone -
I may be scarce around these here parts because I only have one more weekend after this one to get everything done ( isn't that a round about way of saying I have 2 weekends left ? )

My head is whirling over all of this, I still can't believe we've sold - and found a place - and this will not be " home " very shortly - I can't quite grasp the reality of it all yet - all in 6 weeks........................

And it looks like Florida just may be the holiday of choice - sometime in January :)

LOOK WHAT I JUST FOUND ON CRAIGS LIST LMHO
