As you know, my brother will be here on Wednesday, and his room isn’t clean*, so I built a shelf.
Melanie, who I work with, wanted a funky storage area under her loft for some of the fun doo-dads she has for the kiddos. It struck me as a most magnificent idea, and said I’d help. I even bought the ‘select’ lumber (on sale, of course) so it wouldn’t be completely warped when it was finished. She sketched her idea for me, and I actually drew out some plans (with some modifications, of course). (I plan to say ‘of course’ several more times. Care to join me?)
I’m nearly done attaching things, but I had to give up for the night. I’m up way past my bedtime, and with my creaky old knees, I don’t think I can do carpentry on the floor much longer. That stinks. How am I going to find a workbench that’s as big as a whole floor?
* Mark, the sheets are clean, and if you can get to the closet without running into the treadmill, we’re good to go. Of course.
Lauren, you’re a regular Ty Pennington! I’m so impressed. Of course.
I watched TV last night.
Did you watch Big Bang Theory? I really, really love that show.
That’s my very favorite show!!!!!!
Of course you did…as did I.
Lauren you are amazing!! And I’m sure if another ark is ever needed, God will commission you!
Of course He will!
Looks like you didn’t paint the basement then, huh? 😉
Very cool shelving. Love it.
Are you using dowels or screws?
Is THAT sarcasim?
It was the only option.
Of course, you could always make some shelving like that in the basement. Although your knees would bother you while you’re making it, of course.
Wow that’s cool. I love shelves because most of the time they come with books on them!
and it rhymes with elves.
It also contains elves.
“You just blew my mind.” (in a Cosmo Kramer voice)
Isn’t there a Kramer quote like this? I can’t remember which episode and couldn’t find it on youtube.
Here it is:
Jerry: Ah, you’re crazy.
Cosmo Kramer: Am I? Or am I so sane that you just blew your mind?
Jerry: It’s impossible.
Cosmo Kramer: Is it? Or is it so possible that your head is spinning like a top?
Jerry: It can’t be.
Cosmo Kramer: Can’t it? Or is your entire world just crashing down all around you?
Jerry: All right, that’s enough.
Thanks for the bed, sis! Don’t worry about the rest of the room just as long as I have a blanket and a couple of pillows.
You’re too young for creaking knees. It must have been the elves.
