Yesterday was typical work around the house three Home Depot trip day.
Carpet is shot in the den. It's been badly in need of replacement for years, actually. Going to get rid of it and put down LVP. Store asked if we can wait until their July summer sale for the den and bathroom projects we have planned.
Want to rearrange some furniture to clean up the den. Already got rid of the A/V receiver, large floor-standing speakers, and rear bookshelf speakers off the walls. Spackled and painted where the wall brackets were. Room looks a lot better. Bought a sound bar.
There are three large bookcases along a wall and an old TV amoire in a corner in the room that has stuff in it now. Moved the TV amoire to the corner of the living room freeing up that space for a bookcase.
Yesterday was just moving one of the bookcases off the carpet to the tiled portion of the room where the TV amoire was. Took everything out of the bookcase and cleaned all the items. Cleaned the bookcase. Should have waxed it, but I didn't. Moved the bookcase. Felt it was a bit top heavy. Hoped it would be o.k. once filled. Probably o.k., but decided to go to Home Depot to buy a furniture anti-tip kit.
The bookcases were o.k. without a wall bracket when all three were together and clamped together at the top. Want wall anti-tip brackets, if I am going to use them individually.
SIMPLE MOUNT Furniture Anti-Tip Kit (1-Pack)-9976524 - The Home Depot
Not many left in store. Web site says to call before going. I went anyway, since it's close by. They had one.
Pulled out my studfinder. Crap. Left the 9V battery in it, and it is corroded and the wires fell apart. Back to HD for a studfinder.
Doesn't work. Instructions say batteries have to be new-ish. The four 9V batteries I have are dated 2014. Back to HD.
Room looks a lot better. Typical three HD trip day.
Want to move the TV armoire from where I put it in the living room (old dining room) into a back study, and move one of the other large bookcases where the TV armoire was.
Going to take my wife to her office today to get her work mail. She and a colleague haven't been there in a month. The Home Depot near there has anti-tip kits in stock, so I'll go there and pick up a couple more.
