Quick Update Because I'm Sleepy

We're entering the season during which I'm constantly sleepy (or at least, moreso than usual), so my motivation has been lower in recent days. It's really weird to be working on things outside and suddenly I realize that the light is fading, but it's only 3:30!

Note the shirt…I'm seriously always sleepy…

BUT I still did some pretty exciting stuff, with the motivational help of Chris. First, I put in pretty flooring! It was a purely aesthetic choice, since I already have plywood on top of the subfloor, but that's ok.

NEXT, Chris and I removed the top of the workbench that was on our basement when we bought the house (how convenient!), and carried the two pieces up from the basement and out to the shop! (You may remember that the bench I had in there before was foldable and small and not permanent)

Top…

Bottom…

Then I had to trim the ends a little bit, so it would fit more nicely where I wanted it to go…

My sawzall's battery died ☹️ hand tools for the win!

Annnd there we go! It's still a mess in there, but no one can question that it's DEFINITELY a shop now!

Don't forget to look at the FLOORS!

And here's the obligatory Oscar pic: a rare, tail-on-snoot moment. You're welcome!
