In the Closet

In the Closet
Saturday, 6 December 2008

You know, one of the major draws to the house we purchased was the master closet. Closet space has ALWAYS been an issue. I expect it always will be. I guess a couple’s wardrobe will always expand to fill the space it occupies. Today’s main project was re-shelving the master closet. This has been an awesome project for me because I haven’t been involved. I merely told my hero what I’d like to have as far as shoe space, drawers, etc… and then left him alone. I mean, I occasionally brought a tool or something… Mid-project I brought him a fortifying Monster energy drink. But that’s about it.

Joe and Lillian came by to bring us a full bedframe for the guest bedroom They’ve been so very generous and helpful. I don’t know what we’d do without our friends and family. I haven’t talked to Dad today yet. Either it indicates we’re getting better at home renovating… OR we didn’t get enough done today!! :)

I’ve been unpacking slowly but surely. It basically involved moving boxes from room to room to look industrious. I’d hate for James to think I’m not accomplishing anything. *wink wink*

I guess the excitement of the day involved our Dish Network installation man arriving two hours ahead of schedule. This wasn’t good… Because the closet where I wanted the receiver was full of junk. I swiftly moved all that so now our media room looks a tornado went through it. A violent tornado named Lea. So the Dish man brings a new resident for our satellite retirement village (Aka – the roof.) We have four of them now and sadly this guy didn’t take any of the old ones away. Mom thinks it’s hilarious that of the 250 channels we’re getting the only one I know for sure of is ESPN. That was the deal breaker.

Tomorrow is Sunday. Church and a photoshoot. Fortunately I bribed my client into an outdoor session so I won’t have to locate backdrops, clips, poles, etc. tonight.

Hurray for homeownership! I just wish everything didn’t progress at a snail’s pace.
