I had to work 8 of 9 days last week and a half, and my days are around 10 hours each, with close to 1.5-2 hours driving time.
I went out to the garage to put a few coats of poly of a couple of things laying around, but at 8:30 pm, Im too tired.
Ive had requests for some chairs. I explained that its a hobby, but people were persistent. Its not like there are no outdoor furniture places here.
But at 85-100 bucks a chair, they know the value.
One person insisted on handing me 200 dollars 2 weeks ago for 2 chairs.
I told her and her husband, no reason to pay me in advance, give me a couple of weeks, I ll get on them.
I got stuck at work, and since sunday, its been unbearable to work outside, and I dont think Ill be out there today either.
They called me this morning and left a vm on my phone.
Hi, how are you! Was wondering if we could come pick up our chairs today?
Talk to ya soon, hope youre enjoying this great weather!
I havent even cut the wood, I have someone else Im trying to work with since he is interested in some better quality wood, and Im all for working with cherry or the A. Mahogany I bought.
Now I have to explain to this couple that this is more of a hobby, like I told them, and I havent even had a chance with this heat and work to even think about their chairs..
I doubt they will be happy.(they wont ask me for their money back, but Ill get the calls every 2 days)
