SOLVED?
I'm about to dash off the laundromat, but I want to mention I woke up this morning to a fantastic sight - my bathroom cabinet mirror was closed! And it's still closed!
This Christmas I found a mini glue gun in my stocking. I had no idea this little device would fix the issue with the metal strip on my cabinet. I'm sure many of you thought it and probably a few folks mentioned it to me. I had no idea glue guns created such a thick layer of glue! So far, so good. I want to thank my parents for knowing the glue gun was just the item needed to make my life a tiny bit better!
