well, I pulled out those big girl pants and installed two glass shelves in the bedroom…

both shelves had been broken during cleaning over the last few years but I had one available to replace the first one…

after the second one broke, the cleaning company was able to find some that were similar, but they used different hardware than what was on the wall…

the shelves have been sitting in the box they arrived in for quite a few weeks, but today I brought out my screwdriver and the drill and went at it…

took awhile because I had trouble with getting just the right screw head for the screwdriver…

but I persevered and did it and they look good;-)…

I am very pleased because the bedroom has been looking untidy, which makes me a bit crazy, and I have spent a lot of time in it over the last week, with another one to go…

replaced…

about ten years ago I got a new set of pots and hung them up on the kitchen wall…

over the last year I have replaced a few of them and the new pans fit well on the original screws…

except for the lid for one of the new pots… it was just a bit too close to the bottom of the largest pan… my solution had been to hang the lid on top of the pot it worked with…

yesterday morning I decided to move the screw with my new Christmas screwdriver…

it was a bit of a process, as I had to find the correct bit, and figure out how to reverse the direction on the screwdriver, lol…

took about ten minutes total and now the lid finally has its own spot again…

interesting how some days those big girl pants fit so well…

bandages…

one of my gifts was a cool screwdriver…

as I was trying to remove it from the packaging before bed, I cut my finger… it bled quite a bit so I put a bandage on it…

it reminded me of my beloved;-)…

he had bandages everywhere in the house, garage, the car, his pockets…

and that was because he was always injuring himself as he worked away at whatever project was happening…

memories;-)…
