@Kris5902 has not reached the fun part of building~ Flat packs!
Yesterday it was the bunks beds. It should be illegal for whoever does these things to have so little command of the Queen's English they cannot match either the letters or the numbers on the timber to those that came with the instructions for assembly! And that was after I'd negotiated the 2nd web site they gave! The 1st one drew a complete blank!

After 3 hours with little to no forward progress & a multitude of parts that bore little to no resemblance to the diagrams, I called for reinforcements.
The man has no patience for fiddly stuff like this so his solution was a drill & the biggest screws he could find. Baby, this bed ain't going nowhere!!!
This morning I am doing drawers. So far so good but can anyone tell me why the tiny tools they supply don't come with a decent handle?! My fingers are bruised.

I am so over this renno.

So are the chickens.
I let them out late yesterday planning to spend some time with them. I got called away to hold something & when I got back 1/2 the flock were next door digging up their yard. I was so out of patience by then I lured everyone home with meal worms & shoved them back in the coop! It has poured steadily the last 2 days so they haven't even had my attention @ meal time. They call frantically anytime I stick my head outside but they cannot be trusted & are having a pretty boring time of it. By Tuesday the worst should be over, the DIL & grand~kiddies will be in residence & I plan on spending a
lot of time with my poor girls!
