Office progress
We did some touch up painting on my office today and installed the shelves. Had to cut out some molding here and there to make it work, but the shelves are installed. Turns out one of the shelves is not…
Icy
It got scary icy today. I took the kids to school and all was fine, but then snow began to fall. No big deal. I’m from Montana. Easy to deal with. Only the snow melted and put down a layer…
