End of Dec/Beg of Jan Pkg to Adam

Hey everybody!

I was a slacker last week and didn't get Adam's pkg in the mail. And, now the car is in the shop for the forseeable future.... lost 2nd gear on my way home from the doctor's office this morning. So, anyone want to bail me out? Sorry Adam.... there'll be an extra big/good package sent the end of this month.

Package to Adam from MD

I sent Adam another package. Not going to list what was in it so that it will be a surprise for him.

Furniture Refinishing Advice

So - all of you Payne men who know about furniture, tools and fixing stuff -
My dining room table's finish is gone. The clear stuff on top that protects from markers, crayons and stains is gone. The top is not shiny anymore, it's flat. So I need to put some clear polyurathane (sp?) or something on it.

How do I go about doing this? So I need to sand it?
Can I change the color of the table? I'd like it to be darker.

I've already thought about just covering it with a vinyl table cloth because that would be easiest.
I've already thought about begging dad to come help me, but he's going to be too busy to come down here.

So what should I do with it?

Pkg for Adam

I know, I know. The purpose of listing packages here was so he wouldn't get 5 at a time. But, he called me this week and wanted me to get an organizer for him and I did, so I'm sending one this week too. I am sending him:
a craft organizer
some Little Debbies
3 boxes of drink mix
August and October Ensigns
Christmas mini lights
some cheesy looking pine garland
