Feeling proud right now. I actually finished something I started. Okay, really I finished about 50% of what I started. But hey that is farther then normal for me. Definitely I am dirty. I worked on my first of three wood projects. These are wood projects that I have had locked in my disorganized mind for months. The first, I hope is the easiest, our garden box for our patio apartment.
So the garden box. I made it very cheap, oddly enough out of the same stuff you make wood fences out of. Even odder the day after I decided that they were the best and cheapest material to use, I found a website that used the same thing! It’s a place called anaAna White list designs that are free and easy to build, you should go there if you have some furniture you need or just interested in dreaming.
I went to Home Depot and picked up 12 fence boards and had the man, after it took a half hour to find him, cut off the “dog ears” off all of them and then cut 4 of them in half. I picked up some nice 1 ¼” wood screws, a bottle of wood glue, some grade stakes and 4 bags of dirt. Yeah, me! I remembered all the things that I needed to build the boxes including the nice little dowels I am going to use to make the “dog ears” into garden labels.
The first of the 2 boxes is finished, put in the garden spot, filled with the dirt and that is that. I intend on finishing the second box in the morning. So I feel dirty after dumping the bags of dirt into the box. I feel even dirtier knowing that I just cleared off the poo from the Danny’s dirty diapers. I think I need a shower, I am kind of itchy.
