Golden Bird to Flesh-Textured Marble

I found this table-console-thingy at the local Christian charity store. I would have bought it, had it not cost bloody € 500! They also sell dirty, worn Hugo Boss power suits from the 1980s for €80 or so, which is almost as bad. Sometimes I find worthwile stuff, though, like my new, spiffy pipe stand and my 1930s full-body mirror.

I am officially the worst floor-oiler ever. My previously nice but dry floor is now glossy, spotty and strange. I hope I can avoid re-polishing it, at least. Current research: Scotch Brite. Hard work, but yields results, sort of.

Hopefully, I will hear some very good news in a week or two. For me, not for you.
