Two Projects Down!

Well, just mere hours after talking about the projects that were on the slate to help us further nestle ourselves in...on my last day off, I knocked out two! Our income tax return hit and we were able to manage them.

I started with the garage. Got a couple of heavy duty shelves
and moved the one we already had (which is broken and will
be replaced) into the corner and placed the two new ones
along the wall at the one end of the old shelf. My Army gear
now has a place to live where it isn't clogging up closet
space!

Project #2 was our storage closet. Previously
all you would see when this door was open was
my Army gear on the floor, as well as a number
of boxes, my gun cases, and a few shelves
peeking above the mess on the floor. Now,
thanks to the shelves in the garage and these
new shelves, we have a lot more horizontal
surface on which to spread our extra stuff!
Lisa actually helped me out hanging these
shelves, she even drilled a hole or two!

We are supposed to get our ceiling fans tomorrow and the maintenance guys are supposed to come and install those for us. Not far behind that will be our bedroom closet...which the maintenance guys will also do, since it involves removing the old shelving in addition to putting in the new ones. It's so exciting to have everything coming together!
