Babies, babies, babies...

Okay, I'm a push over when it comes to babies.  I love them and all their little things!  As a grandma of babies, I liked to have all the stuff I needed for diaper changes handy, but contained!   When I saw a plan for this cute thing I just had to make it.  I didn't get a picture of the first one I made for a new grandma of a baby boy, but I made sure to snap a picture of this cute thing!  This one is going to be a centerpiece at the baby shower.  It's filled with diapers and wet wipes and dusting powder, and a snuggly thing to keep baby occupied while the change is happening!  Everything you need in one pretty spot - you can leave it out or just as easily stick it in a closet and pull it out when baby is visiting.  I love it.  Alas, no more babies at my house.  Although, there's still a chance for one though if the Doctor kids decide to take on the challenge!

Done - for now!

I think the garage is ready!

Today was one long day, but I'm ready to work again.  I did shove the work bench up and moved the table saw closer to the garage door.  This should make it possible to use the bench as an out feed table.



See that thing dangling over the work bench?  That's an multi-outlet extension cord.  I had it stretched across the floor before and I had to be careful not to trip on it.  I think this will work, but I'm going to look for something like a retractable cord.  It's not in my way right now, but if it would pull up a couple of feet when not in use it might be nicer.

I also added a shelf to my work bench.  Now I can store my nail and staple guns right above the air compressor.  

I was able to move things around on the wall shelving so that I now have some space on the bottom shelves to store small, usable pieces of plywood.  

I hung up my cross-cut jigs (one on the wall above the cut off saw, and one right there on the end of the work bench).

Right there on the work bench is a sneak peak of my next project.  I'm just starting to lay things out, and need to make a trip to Home Depot  -  are they open on Easter???  I think they might be,. I hope so, I'm heading there tomorrow after brunch with Kyle.  A sewing table - do you see it?  I admit, right now it would take a very vivid imagination to see it, but maybe by tomorrow it will be easier to envision!

Easter Sunday tomorrow, and mass at 6:30 in the morning.  I think I'm done for the night!  Hopefully, the kinks in my back will miraculously work themselves out overnight - an aching back really slows me down!
