Nothing to do with your bust-up with the stool but the title of the thread reminded me of an ancient joke.

Two guys were talking and the term "Freudian slip" came up. One guy asked the other what that meant and he explained, "It's when you mean to say one thing but something inappropriate comes out instead".

The second guys says, "Oh yeah. That happened at breakfast the other day. I meant to ask my wife, 'Hand me the marmalade please' but it came out as 'You've ruined my life you miserable witch'".

The first guy says, "That's right. It happens to all of us, don't sweat it".

That's a good idea. But tomorrow is trash pickup day, so I'm going to ride around the community and see if anyone has put out an old upholstered chair. If they have, I'll take out the pocket knife and get me some Naugahyde.
Unsolicited suggestion - look for a feral urban couch.
Field-dress it, taking the leather with you - leave the springs & foam behind.
Stitch it up w/ dental floss and a curved needle.
Staple to the under-side w/ a lil bit of tension.

Peace - Deeve

I also used some white leather from a curb-find, to re-cover a 2x12 cabinet

also - for anger management purposes - you. are. not. alone.

Here in New York the hunting season's open for nauga, long gun or bow, bag limit five.

I fly a lot. Flew 2 round trips this week. I feel your pain. I've had those phone calls. Better a stool than a powerless employee.
