Anyone Got Super Glue??????

[DianaB]

Dae Lynn called for me to babysit Karlie because she had to work this morning too. Not exactly what I wanted to do with a day all to myself but I don't mind because she is a sweet little girl. This morning though I came into the office to pay some bills and left her in the living room watching tv. We had just pulled the little rocking chair out so she could sit in it and not be too close to the screen. I no more got settled in the office when I heard a crash!!!! Karlie had rocked too hard and her and the chair fell onto the bottom glass on my glass coffee table......You guess it.......it's broken. I'm really glad that she wasn't hurt and that was my first concern. But I'm just sick because I really liked the table and it had been a friends. I tried not to get really upset because Karlie was already upset and crying over it. I checked in the phone book and there are some companies that replace glass in tables so I think that Monday I'll contact them. I sure hope that it's not too expensive. I'm just sick.......

Oh, I am sorry this happened to your beloved table Diana (((((hugs)))))) I am glad she is okay, but I understand what you are going through. I get really sentimentally attached to some things!

I hope you can find someone to replace the glass for a good price! lol this reminds me of when I was little and I looooooved anything glass, and I always tried to convince my parents to buy glass tables and my mom's answer was always "No, you or your brother will break it"

Diana how terrible! I get attached to some pieces too, if they were a friends, family. Of course we don't ever want anything to happen to a loved one and their well being comes first, but I do understand. I'm sure one of those glass companies will be able to fix it. You can also get an estimate at some of the hardware stores. I really don't think it will be too expensive a fix.

I felt so bad because I was really upset with her after it happened and she knew it so she was crying, more from being afraid of what I would do to her. After a couple of minutes I calmed down and assured her that I knew that it was an accident. I haven't even tried to clean it up yet. The table is so heavy and I'm just not ready to face it yet. Dae Lynn was upset when she saw it but after she found out what had happened she realized that it was just an accident. I sure hope that I can get it fixed for not too much. It was an expensive table when my friend bought it but I didn't give too much for it when I bought it from her. I could always have an oak base put on it if glass is too expensive, I guess.

Let us know what you find out will you? For some reason, I just don't think it will be that expensive and still, wouldn't it be worth it to have it back to original condition if it doesn't cost more than it's worth?

You've got me thinking now....I have my husbands grandmothers coffee table out in our garage attic. It has a glass top on it...I may have to bring it back into the house. I got a little tired of it, but now I'm thinking to try it again.

I am glad she is ok! I am sure that one of the glass companies can replace it for you.
