went to IKEA with the kids this morning and they bought a bedside table for me that I’ve been looking at for a while… I saw it online but they didn’t have one put together in the store so that we could see what it really looked like… we’d searched for it last time we were there but couldn’t find it… today it jumped off the shelf as we walked by…

stopped at Rona for a few things for their kitchen and then on to Kum Koon Garden for dim sum with a young friend, who then dropped me at home…

had a nap and did a bit of housework…

after which, this box and four hours produced a very cute bedside table…

woo hoo, way to go me and my big girl pants…

there are many tools in the garage and a couple of toolboxes in the basement, but I used my tools… this hammer, which was made by George in shop class, and a small pink screwdriver that has multiple heads… George wasn’t allowed to use them and so they never got lost, lol…

rather happy with my project… and it fits perfectly…
