[...] The Love Nest is so not insulated. Wind whistles through the outlets. (kind of fixed that with insulated plugs). But the doors leak too. Now SuperGuy taped up the balcony door. How low rent does that look??? Oh, and notice the old wool blanket at the base of the door. [...]

It is amazing how just the addition of that mirror really “polishes” the room. It’s a lovely mirror. I think guys just like to use their tools — it’s so, so manly!

It’s lovely … right out of a Pottery Barn catalogue! It appears you and SuperGuy are having quite the time adorning the Love Nest. Enjoy!

Wait. You have to be male to do these things? I’m the one who tightens the screws in the chairs and hangs mirrors here. And tiles floors. Love it! Tell your sweetie he’s doing a fine job and give him a huge smackeroo!

Oh, and Sarah S.: my DH does that too. I just hate cleaning up the tools and mess and more often leave it for the week or whatever.

Isn’t it wonderful to have such a handy man to do your bidding? And the mirror does indeed look beautiful. And your chairs will not wobble. It is all good.

Gotta Love em is right! It is difficult for me to get mine away from his computer long enough to hang a mirror. But shucks, what would we do without them.

I impressed that he didn’t stop with the mirror but tightened the chairs too. What a Man!

mirror looks great!
my SO does alot of things around this old house.
Unfortunately he takes on many things half-arse and often it requires a minimum of 2 trips to the hardware store.

Doesn’t EVERY male get sidetracked? I thought that was a requirement or something.
