Christmas Priorities

Once again it appears to be December, I can tell because I can’t seem to gain a decent amount of headway on any projects. Between Christmas shopping, Christmas parties, the snow, getting sick (cold), being sick (digestive problems)I have thus far managed to only get the bases done on the bookshelves this month. They aren’t really even done, I still have to run the electrical through them. It’s not that I mind the distractions, it’s just that they’re are so many of them in December. This year I at least have gone into it knowing that I wasn’t going to accomplish much on our current project, the Library Jeremy Clarkson voice The Longest project in the world /Jeremy Clarkson voice. But they are starting to come together.

Still got to perm. attach the shelves together, and attach them to the walls, and put up the last of the trim on this side. Oh, and build doors for the corner cabinets. Then I get to do the other side. I imagine I will be re-posting this next year, only with different photos. It is just the way Decembers are for us I guess.

The majority of the Christmas shopping is done. Unless Amazon screws up; all will go smoothly. I’m kind of excited about Melissa’s gift, It’s something completely different from anything I’ve got her before, though it was hard to top the etched ipod touch. When you factor in the practical use she has for the tough doing the calorie tracking, and how much weight she’s lost, I don’t think I can top it. I’m fookin gonna try!
