My lovely wife, who I adore, decided to start a "project" about a month ago. Mind you this started to be simply swapping the work out room with her scrap booking room. Which seemed simple enough at the time. One thing I might mention is that her scrap booking room is very similar to a scrap book store with the racks of colored paper, peg board with all the crazy cutting scissors hanging from it, punches of every shape, I think she has enough inventory for about 6 months to a year if she wanted to open a retail shop!! LOL
Then she decided she needed some new desk or tables or something to make it more organized....really could she more organized?? Then she could not find anything she liked, so off to Lowes, she thought she could just buy pre-made kitchen cabinets uppers and lowers and order a Formica top.....how perfect would that be!! So we had 16 (SIXTEEN) upper and lower cabinets in our garage FOREVER, while she stained them. I like to park in the garage, not happening when you have a cabinet shop in your garage!! Oh, I forgot to mention, we have Thanksgiving at our house, between 50-60 people. And my very organized wife has to have everything perfect before Thanksgiving, so SHE is working on a timeline!
I am positive, because I know my wife, everything will be completed by Thanksgiving. But next time when she says she has a little project she wants to do, I will probably have to remind her of this little project!! And then laugh hysterically!!!!

Im glad I finally found your blog! you are like a pro now! Does your wife know she is the main character of this blog? I cant ever park in my garage either.
ReplyDeletePark in a garage? Really?? That's an interesting concept.
ReplyDeletehahaha I love it! This sounds like how all of my "little" projects turn out...always more than you bargain for. I am TERRIFIED of Lowe's/Home Depot, so tell her I'm impressed she went! hahaha!!! And good luck getting everything finished! 50-60 people?! My goodness! We have about 20-30 at my parents' house for Thanksgiving, and THAT feels like a lot! Your wife is amazing!
ReplyDelete50-60 people for Thanksgiving WOW!!!
ReplyDeleteDo what I am doing skipping town for Thanksgiving and going skiing less to clean up that way my friend. Serious have a great Holiday sounds like you will be busy but sounds fun.
Tre'
I am a firm believer that there is no such thing as a "small project". They tend to grow and expand into monster undertakings. Good luck...let me know what time we need to be at your house for Thanksgiving. It sounds like you will have plenty!
