TAD # 2, #3 & #4

So, my days are filled with non-stop running and by the time I have a chance to post my TAD, I am horizontal in bed..so, this is my catch up post. Not that any of these are necessarily horribly creative, but, such is my life these days.

Cleaned and sealed countertops!   The new closet rod. Not too bad looking!   Closeup of closet hardware   Sideview of the closet   Hooking up the new TV to the legacy receiver, DVD & CD players.

TAD #2 - CLEANING AND SEALING THE COUNTERTOPS

This was Saturday and I felt like crap. I had attempted to do a little too much the day before and I was having aches in places that I shouldn’t have. So, my big thing was to clean off all of the tools, adhesives, pieces/parts and so on that were cluttering up my onyx countertop. I cleaned it really well and then sealed it.

TAD#3 - MAKING A CLOSET WHERE ONE DIDN’T EXIST BEFORE

Sunday was a whole new task. I had to figure out how to install a somewhat decent looking rod to hang my clothes in my new closet. The problem is, the wall is on a roofline and most pre-made closet things you buy are made to go in square, not slanted spaces. So, after spending a good deal of time in the hardware section, I came up with a solution using hitching rings, 1×4’s & a nice chrome closet bar. It’s amazing how much time this took to install. I still need to stain the 1×4’s, but I am very happy with the final product.

TAD #4- THAT’S ENTERTAINMENT

Last night the task was to figure out how to set up the new TV with the legacy receiver, DVD, CD and make it all work with the in-ceiling speakers.
