This month it has been 11 years since Chuck and I moved in to this house, and for 11 years I have disliked the dining room chairs, but they were Chuck's choice, so for a long time after his death, I did nothing to change them.
In the meantime I have gotten a new table, and the chairs are even more disagreeable.
And then I thought........paint the suckers.
They are not made of precious wood, in fact they are made from cheap pine, and they are what is known here in Mexico as " rustico ".
So I started to paint them.
And now I can stand them.
I still don't really like them but with the paint, I can stand them.
Such a simple thing; should have done this a long time ago. And before the termites got to them.
Ah well; so I am a bit slow, but I do muddle on. Like with the chairs. One at a time.
