DH has taken the week off to work on the house and relax some. I've intended to post every day this week, but I haven't.
This weekend, DH was planning on getting up on the roof to install two plumbing vent pipes, some of the last bits of plumbing he has to do. Of course, we had intermittent rain a good bit of the weekend which kept the roof just wet enough that he couldn't work on it.
It made him grumpy to have his plans thwarted by rain, so I sent him out to his shop to finish making and mounting the drawers and doors on his shop workbench, which he did.
The doors and drawer fronts are made from old cabinet doors DH salvaged from a remodel at work. He saved them from the dumpster thereby saving himself a bunch of money. The drawer pulls and door handles we got on clearance from Lowe's for fifty cents each.
On Monday, the weather was cooperative enough for him to get the vent pipes done. The summer weather is definitely hotter now. DH hates sweat running down in his eyes, so he "borrowed" one of my microfiber sweatbands to wear. I think he looks rather jaunty, don't you? ;-)
I've been stitching on the July block of "Crabby All Year" and hope to have it done by the weekend. I plan to spend the rest of the month of July stitching on "that durn flag." Hopefully I can make myself work on it enough to get a lot done on it.
