    Sigh it’s off center. I didn’t manage them well this time.

    Guess I’ll be taking it apart and reassembling it after all, as soon as the wife sees the issue…

          Smart move delegating that department. Coming from the guy that once mentioned that I liked one certain candle in the presence of some family from my girlfriends side, and now we have switched to those transparent IKEA containers for storing all the birthday and Christmas gift candles.

          At least, all of that is going to make a spectacular bonfire one day.

      You don’t think about 100 of those little furniture sliders would do it? Lol

        We had to move the rug as well, and it had a pad underneath to prevent sliding.

        It wasn’t really hard to do the rearranging once I figured out the clip system

    Do you ever throw those parachute army guys off the balcony?

    Growing up our house had a similar balcony and my brothers and I would spend all day making parachutes and throwing them or airplanes off of it.

        I have a pull down TV mount for my TV that is above the fireplace. Works really well and it swivels too.

          I’m getting flak from friends about the tv now, so I may look into that arm that lowers it. Seems smart

    Love your void on top of the cabinet. Does it jump up to the 2nd floor from there?

      Down from the balcony, then to get back she jumps up to it. Through the railing supports, which always makes me nervous
