In other exciting news....

...I assembled shelves Saturday!

Shiny new shelves, and they have STUFF on them now! The other side of the garage is ALmost cleaned out. Stuff left to do something with include my little homemade workbench constructed of half of a door and the legs from our old picnic table that my mom and dad had at our old OLD house back about 1970 or so. It also has a small bench vise on it, and you know, the legs have great sentimental value, so it's difficult to get rid of it. But it doesn't really fit in the garage. Might have to figure out a different legging strategy.

The other things include my folding drafting table, my portable drafting table, my big tank-style air compressor, a bunch of old pictures, two big ice chests, and two wrought iron mailbox posts my father made by hand. The rest of the heavy iron stuff has once again been squirreled away for safekeeping lest anyone try to steal it, give themselves a hernia, and sue me for damages.

Sounds like you are making real progress. We need to tackle cleaning out our attic. The problem is, of course, that cleaning out an attic just means you have more room for new stuff. It won't be like we can park in there after its clean or anything.

Will you please tell us more about the shelves? I’ll be in the market soon.

It really has been a worthwhile process, Jordana, but it's hard to believe I've been working on this for more than a month now, and still haven't gotten it finished.

And Jim, your wish is my command.
