I have been contemplating buying a new couch for my house. It being Thanksgiving, I figured this was the best time so I could save some money. So I hopped in my car and went and bought a new couch.
I also decided this would be a good time to rearrange my living room the way I wanted it to be (for the new couch). This meant halving two builtins to accommodate my very large TV stand. My thought process was that I could remove half the builtins without having to remove them completely; I was wrong. Boy, was I wrong.
Not only am I going to have to build all new builtins, but also:
Left an inch gap between the ceiling drywall and the wall
I must’ve cracked the ceiling drywall removing a builtin, so I need to patch the ceiling (its a popcorn ceiling)
The carpet under the builtins is not the same carpet as my living room
The builtins were painted after they were installed — including the wall behind the builtins (i.e. there was no backing to the builtins)
The window on that wall is not centered in the room (in fact, I don’t think anything in that house — window, fireplace — are centered)
So yeah, I can’t help but wonder how many years it’ll be before I fix my living room.
So I might have fucked up last week:
