It was a weekend of closet construction.
Saturday after G’s stint at the museum, we went off to IKEA to see what
we could see in the way of shelving for my closet. With careful measurements in hand, we
wandered the shelving section finally deciding on a really good looking
set. Square boxes live in a wide white
frame and no one will see them but me.
Margot came over with Zoe. G fixed
her RAV4 window motors, and Margot did a glorious Window dance. We took everyone to breakfast before tackling
the closet shelves. Zoe read the
instructions, and George used that handy Allen wrench. (And hammer and screwdriver.)
Margot left with a mountain of clothes I don’t wear while I feel guilty
giving them to her. She has trouble with
messes. Me? Shoes, purses, and sweaters now live in those
pristine white shelves. I have one more upper
shelf to sort through, and that project is done.
Thank you George and Zoe.

There's nothing quite so satisfying as a 'chuckinout' day lol.
ReplyDeleteAnd my gosh, I had one. Thanks.
DeleteI switched to boxes. Brilliant. If it doesn't fit, something has to go.
ReplyDeleteOdd but I was thinking how Margot still can use your generosity. My daughter "rents" some of her clothes and pays a fortune on others and would throw away anything I offered. I washed her kitchen windows the other day and when she didn't notice and I mentioned it, she replied..."Oh, I had the maids wash all the windows last week." We should be a sit-com, East Coast/West Coast.
ReplyDeleteSit com indeed. My daughter living in assisted housing, and it get's inspected every 2 weeks. LOL I so hope she put those sweaters away before the nextt inspection. Mine takes everything I offer but Often just dumps it somewhere.
DeleteLove it when a project works out like this one did!
