after spending about 7 hours on Saturday recovering 3 dining room chairs I feel like I've been in a car accident. Between leaning over a table loosening and tightening screws, removing about 6o staples per chair, and stapling 60 more with a staple gun every part of my body is sore from my lower back up to my neck; even my fingers hurt. What? When did this happen? I planned on completing the other three chairs today, but instead I rolled out of bed, took two aspirin every 4 hours, and whined about my achy body for the rest of the day. I'm going to have to give myself a few days off before I finish that project. Who knew that such a simple project would be so difficult.
I'm too young to feel this old! Or is it I feel to young to be this old? Today I feel old, that's for sure.
Oh, come on, young people get backaches, too. Or so I hear. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteI have learned to take ibuprofen BEFORE I start projects like gardening or chair re-covering. It really works.
ReplyDeleteDo we get to see photos of the chairs?
Hey, reapolstering chairs is serious work! Especially if you do a good job, which I'm sure you have. So your aches and pains are warranted.
