    The GOOD news brag consists of the fact that I took on assembling a fabric and metal wardrobe to house some of my seasonal clothing. (I bought it on Kijiji in May.)

    The BAD news is - after 1 1/2 hours and a lot of huffing and puffing, I realized that I had it wrong and would have to start again. That's when I QUIT! But I'll tackle it again tomorrow.

    I pride myself on being "handy" putting things together. I WILL NOT BE DEFEATED!

    DON'T GIVE UP!!!! YOU CAN DO IT!! You've done more complicated things than that wardrobe, I am sure you will show it who is the boss in the end.

    I assembled a storage cabinet (with a little help from my sister), it was 40+ celcius and no A/C. So I just hurry and get the dang thing finish. Then sometimes later when I start filling the shelves and realized that the bottom shelf was up side down...showing the glued wood chips. Too late as I pretty much have to uninstall everything and start all over again. So I convinced myself that I will get some wallpaper and glued over it and consider that done.

    Well, I headed down in the basement today after the TV installer had finished doing same. (I was in charge of calming the dogs down every time they heard a "thump") Then dh wanted to show me how nice the picture on the tv was. We both fell asleep and I was nearly late for rehearsal - so TOMORROW, TOMORROW - I love ya tomorrow, you're only a day away!

    aw avon I can relate!! At least you have intentions of returning to the scene of the crime, I tend to walk away. Hope it gets constructed the right way eventually.

    Tah Dah! Complete - including putting the longer dresses in there that I can now access easily in a less crowded space! I also set up a little "crafts" area and moved a bookcase into that area. Looking good!
