…it’s embarassing really.

Something over 10 years ago, just after we moved into this house, I took it upon myself to remove the baseboard in our living room and hallway. The notion was that I would refinish the hardwood floors and replace the baseboard straight away, adding a lovely country appeal to the rooms.

Well…the floors got refinished.

10+ years later, I finally got around to putting up baseboard. Those who know me will attest to the ongoing ribbing I’ve taken (deservedly, I admit!) over this issue. Well, rib no more fans! I’ve just today finished the work! The funny part is that we’re now going to be putting carpeting back in where I had re-worked the floors… Time has a funny way of dealing with such matters.

In any case, I’m sure that my friends and family will easily find other topics to rib me about, given that I’m somewhat gifted with a virtual bull’s-eye where that kind of thing is concerned. My wife has already coined a new phrase suitable to the situation: “10 Years and 3 days to get my baseboard!” Why three days? ‘Cause that’s how long it took from the time that I started putting it up ’til I finished this afternoon…

Why rush these things?
