I did this nearly 20 years ago in a bedroom at our old house. I swear the previous Owners had used Supa Glue, so no amount of steaming moved that baby.

I can blame this for experience for never having made it as a Super Model!!<br />Millie ^_^Milliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15408461724832141163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1357105223288312642.post-64696944376658131042010-05-29T00:13:52.967-04:002010-05-29T00:13:52.967-04:00I wonder if that job would have gotten done much s...I wonder if that job would have gotten done much sooner if you'd left the laptop out of the room.
