Crib Update.
The laminate legs of the crib are cut and notched and ready to be glued. This is the first milestone in the making of the crib. Meme Nelson told me she expected to be apprised on the progress of the crib so I will periodically provide updates here. The legs each consist of 3, 2 ¼ x ¾ pieces laminated to form a 2 ¼ inch square leg. The center board in each leg is notched such that the sideboards and rails will fit into the slot they form. You can see this easily in the picture.
We spent the weekend in Jacksonville and went to Karen’s baby shower. It’s the best baby shower I’ve ever been to. Karen and Tim have always surrounded themselves with good people as friends and this shower really showed that. It was a diverse and friendly group of people. Penny “catered” the affair and did a spectacular job. My favorite dish was her Portobello mushroom ravioli. Brie made the trip with us and while she spends all of the automobile time under my seat she is adjusting some to the whole routine. She didn’t have any real panic moments even when I shut her and Finn in the same room. When we got back home she settled right in to her old routine. She did run up and down the hallway a few times to express her joy at being home again.
Remember the sod? It’s supposed to be delivered tomorrow afternoon. If it comes I will then be laying sod full-time.
The doctor said today that I do have a herniated disc but it should heal OK if I take it easy. So-o-o after I get the sod laid I will try to take it easy.
