Back at the Wal*marts

November 19, 2009 by Lloyd 7 Comments

Remember a little while ago when we toured Feral Cat City? Remember a week ago when Kristi visited? Well, it turns out that Kristi hadn’t seen the new Wal*marts or that the old Wal*marts was slowly turning into a church. We went out to do a little investigative reporting…

I think this is taken from the Jewery Department.

They've got to be thinking all glass, right?

Picture without a good caption.

Every church needs a stockade.

Boy, that third picture sure could use a caption.

I drew plans and everything!

February 2, 2009 by Lauren 18 Comments

As you know, my brother will be here on Wednesday, and his room isn’t clean*, so I built a shelf.

Melanie, who I work with, wanted a funky storage area under her loft for some of the fun doo-dads she has for the kiddos.  It struck me as a most magnificent idea, and said I’d help.  I even bought the ‘select’ lumber (on sale, of course) so it wouldn’t be completely warped when it was finished.  She sketched her idea for me, and I actually drew out some plans (with some modifications, of course).   (I plan to say ‘of course’ several more times.  Care to join me?)

Turns out I can’t make those tiny shelves - no room.

I’m nearly done attaching things, but I had to give up for the night.  I’m up way past my bedtime, and with my creaky old knees, I don’t think I can do carpentry on the floor much longer.  That stinks.  How am I going to find a workbench that’s as big as a whole floor?

Not much longer, my little smurfs.

* Mark, the sheets are clean, and if you can get to the closet without running into the treadmill, we’re good to go.  Of course.
