So, like I was saying, I planned on putting a door in our old shed. Here it is with the hole enlarged so I can put the door in.
And then I put some framing in after taking careful measurements and making a run to Lowes and the dump...actually, I went to the dump twice.
Something about my measurements was off a bit. I had to...adjust the frame. All-in-all, though, I think it turned out pretty good. Sure, it's no piece of art, but it works! It shuts and it opens and it hasn't fallen out!
To say I am pooped would be an understatement. To say I am exhausted might be to belittle the work I did today. OK, I am exhaustipated.
I remember days spent slinging hammer and pounding nails. I worked with my dad for a couple years. I developed nice forearms when I was younger. I could sling that hammer all day long. Of course, often it was used in an attempt to fasten my father to a roof, but you should REALLY try to have fun at work, right? Usually, he was able to attach me to the roof more often. That doesn't mean I didn't try, though. It has been SO long though, since I used a hammer for any amount of time that I have a feeling my forearms will be sore for a few days. It was worth it, though!
Now I will be able to access the contents of the shed!! There is some concrete in there and I plan on laying sidewalk in the next week or two. There is much to be done! I like having projects...keeps your mind off other things.
Oh, and as for jobs? I have the majority of the next two weeks filled! Awesome, huh?

Looks great babe! I love fixes that don't cost us much! Now if only we could find some free siding.
Dennis made a run to Lowes today, I guess you didn't run into each other. You did a fantastic job. I knew you would.
