Well, I am definitely one of the proud, few girls who asks for power tools for Christmas… and for this Christmas I finally asked to upgrade from randomly failing cheapie cordless drills to nice Ryobi One+ tools. It is a really more than just drills, because the batteries interchange with dozens and dozens of cordless tools. So it is more of a “System”., , At the same time, I finally accepted the fact that we will not be getting a garage or a workshop any time in the near (or even moderately distant) future. While this is sad in many ways, accepting that fact really made me think about my tools and how much of a mess everything is every time I want to do a project or two. I have frequently spent 4 to 5 times the length of time trying to find my tools in assorted boxes in the spare room, dining room, and shed, than I spend on the project itself! Then… it is no wonder that I am loath to put anything away since I know I will need the same tools for the next project. And when I finally put things away, they just all get shoved back into yet another box, because nothing has a proper home., , With my new found acceptance, I resolved to outfit a “Mobile Shop”. With two goals in mind. One… to have all of my most used tools, hardware, and other supplies, placed into proper tool totes, etc, that would be not only mobile, but give each item a proper home so that everything could be found (and put away) easily. Two… to have the least amount of totes, etc, to keep the whole “shop” easy to move to needed work locations around or outside of the house, but also able to put away into a corner of the spare room or wherever, so there would not be boxes and such spread all over the house.

We found this interesting antique liquor cabinet at a thrift shop and though we would re-finish it for use as a coffee ice-cream liquor type cabinet.

Chris and I helped our friends in Aurora re-do their kitchen. It was quite a challenge to find good deals and make things work, but it turned out very nice and was a lot of fun using my new tools and Mobile WorkShop.

A couple small tables I made from drawer faces that we got along with a bunch of cupboard doors for projects.

Home Made Throw Pillows - I have to admit that I am pretty proud of my pillows. Chris helped me pick material and picked up zippers and such, and I made a whole herd of very nice, usable and decorative pillows for our living room and some for my chaise lounge upstairs, too.

Refinish of Our Bakers Rack
|
Our new used couch.
|
It fits much closer to the wall and looks nicer than the big rocker recliners did.
|
I sanded off the cherry finish on the legs and brace bars.
|
The pale wood looks much nicer in our living room than the cherry did.
|
You can see the red cherry finish that was there before.
|
New steps for front door to replace the fence post platform that was temporarily (for four years) there.
|
Chris was given these step pieces from a work site that were scraps, but they sure look nice as our steps.
|
We got a really good condition over the stove microwave for $10 while we were looking for cabinets for a friend.
|
We had to move up the cabinet and remove the fan hood that was there, but the microwave is much better than the semi-compact one that we had on a stand near the fridge.
|
It is really nice to have a full power microwave that doesn't take up extra space.

We got a nicer used dishwasher, but the wood front didnt match our cabinets, so we re-did the front.

Just a little proof that color means nothing in the eyes of love.

I will probably have to figure out how to remove them if I will be hauling firewood and such.
|
The dashboard is very cracked, and it needs seat covers, but otherwise, the interior is in really good shape.
|
Okay. So the picture doesn't show it well, but I got a perm and curls! Of course, the curls are almost all flat in the longer hair already, but if I pull it up, then it is still kinda curly underneath. If I ever get it done again, I will go with much smaller rollers on the top and maybe cut it all shorter first.
|
I just had to share... I am getting so close to my years goal. I just need to make my monthly goal twice in a row. Of course we don't have many months left in the year, so I better keep at it.

2 Bed, 2 Bath, 2130 sq ft, Built 1986, 0.78 Acre Lot., , It is always interesting what you think to take a pictue of and what you dont when you first are looking at a house, so the pics I took really dont give a great feel for the house, but if we get it, I will be sure to take more and probably some videos so that you can see where things lay out.
