Success, finally… I finally got all my drawers installed and the base cabinets are in place. I can’t wait to start loading all my tools into the drawers. Of course, the easy work is behind me. Now I need to mill all the wood for the exposed sides and drawer faces. Once I get the finished drawer fronts and sides on, I can then put the nineteen-foot countertop in place. That will have to wait for another day as my “mom” work is getting behind. I was able to work for a few hours but called it quits early. The laundry was build up and I needed to get on it before Matt was forced to go “Commando”.
Balancing all the things I need to do and want to do continues to be a challenge. Gone are the days of spending an entire day out in the shop. Sure I can still do that but it comes with consequences like being too tired to cook dinner. While I could easily spend ten or twelve hours out there I find striking that balance is better for me overall.
Still, I do get a good deal more satisfaction out of building a set of cabinets than I do washing a bunch of dirty clothes…
