Crown Molding

Last night I started another project.  It seemed like a simple matter to installing a decorative molding around the top of the living room…a living room with a vaulted ceiling.  After all, how hard could that be?  Besides it would give me a chance to justify that expensive miter saw that just sits idle in my garage. 

Well, after going through a couple of thousand board feet of ornate crown molding I discovered the endless ways you could cut the wrong angle with amazing accuracy. 

It’s funny how simple thing can be so complicated and…complicated things be so simple, but such is life.  

Thank you, Lord Jesus, for simplifying life with a few simple rules. 

Thank you, YOU-Tube, for simplifying crown-molding installations with a few short videos.

When you’re down and you have no clue.

Do not frown, there’s always hope for you.

Don’t clown around, for it’s time you must review.

The rules profound, they’ll tell you what to do.

All life’s answers are in “The Book”.

But when putting molding in your nook,

To “YouTube” you must look.

Thank you, Lord, I’m so glad I took your hook.

Amen.
