Crossing the line... there's no hope now

susandennisYesterday I got really frustrated with a fiddly light fixture and pulled out the glue gun. I hate the glue gun because it's always such a mess and a bother but the other glue was not working.
And I was right about the glue gun. Mess. Bother. and didn't even work that well.
But, today, another set of things that were just not cooperating. So I pulled out the glue gun again. This time I had better luck. But holy crap. There was still a giant mess of glue gun strings. So I fired up Google and studied up on glue gun technique.
Slippery slope, you now have me totally.
Also, I'm getting more creative. I follow the instructions until it just makes no sense. I was trying to glue (regular not hot) down some lace curtains when all of a sudden it occurred to me that this was nuts. I got a needle and thread and did a way better, easier job of it. And used some of my own lace trim because theirs was not as nice.
Progress.
But so messy. Finally I had to stop just to clean up the mess.
Korean ribs from Costco for dinner.
