Sweat Shop...

The wine rack came in a day early! Luckily we had already bought the varnish for it to make the Fir wood look pretty and maybe even help it last a little bit longer. Since my uncles are staying here my dad asked them to help out. But we should have known better...the first morning they were here in the states, they woke up at 6 am and swept the entire patio of all its leaves and any other junx that may have blown on it.

Once the box was opened, the oldest brother of my mom said they'll just paint it themselves and it'll get done faster...excellent, i don't have to do any of the painting. i have two Vietnamese guys doing it for me, like i'm running my own little sweat shop...minus the extremely low pay and harsh conditions...and they're not little Vietnamese kids...but it'll do. They're just too nice, they even offered to come over every weekend to clean the house. gangsta.
The directions said its not sturdy until fulling assembled....they're willing to tell me that, but not how to actually assemble it...who writes this stuff?? They deserve a scissor kick to the face...
They seem to be enjoying themselves...Some of the wine rack drying...
i actually painted a little bit of that one ladder looking thing while everyone was still eating dinner...just so i can say i did a little painting...First coat done! Now the basement is filled with fumes...and my mom's youngest brother said he would touch up and add a second coat in the morning...i don't even wake up in the morning...
