"Labor" Day Weekend

First of all, to all of us who are "retired", there are no weekends.  "Holiday  Three Day  Weekend"  just means the garbage is picked up a day later and four days of mail instead of five!  Now,  that is the worst.   The US Mail, FedEx and UPS are our lifelines to the outside world!

MC has spent his Holiday Three Day Weekend working on the wall unit for his room!  I can't tell you how many times he has been to Lowes and Home Depot the last four days!  It's all part of the game!  He gets home and realizes he "forgot" a very important tool, nail or piece of wood, so back he has to go.

I have to say that the project is coming along very quickly and it's looking pretty good!

I snapped a few pictures while he wasn't looking........want to see?

He built a "base" for the lower cabinets to raise it up from the floor.

After all the base cabinets were in, he began the upper shelves.

The second upright was where I had to come in.  No picture for this reason.  I had to hold it in place while he "fastened" it to the wall and ceiling.  Not too easy!


Then the shelves began.   I had to hold up the lower one, the first one to be put in, while he secured it in place.  OOPS  he dropped it on my hand!  A little hurt there!!!  After a  little time out  the others went up!

Second side went up  a lot easier!  Leaned from the first!

Taking it all in!

ADORABLE MC
