The Great Bedroom Closet Project of Aught-Twelve
Wherein I start a project, discover a trap door, and eventually realize I need a better plan than ‘build some shelves’.
So in other words, Tuesday.
Years ago I cleared floor space with the brilliant discovery that an old dresser fit neatly in my bedroom closet. Between that, a tie rack discovered… somewhere, and existing hooks and nails, the closet had functioned fine, if somewhat unimpressively, for storing the bulk of my clothes.
Excitement on all sides
1) I finished drilling all the beams for the bookcase.
2) A ’63 Cadillac plowed into my neighbor’s rose bushes while trying to avoid another neighbor’s pickup truck at an intersection. No one was hurt. The image of a giant boat of a car nestled amongst foliage, with a flattened stop sign on the ground nearby, will remain in my mind for a while though.
