The gorgeous bookcase that Sparky built was finally dry and ready to come in. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to carry half of this. It is huge!

I wowed Sparky with my sheer strength as we got it up the steps and in the back door, through the hallway and now just a simple little K turn into C's room.

*((*#^@%$&!!^%#%#$*

It doesn't fit. Oh we had measured. We knew just how high we could build it so that we would still be able to stand it up when it got inside. Trouble is there is no straight way into C's room and this thing just doesn't bend. Neither do my knuckles, which are now scraped and bruised from banging into doorways or my back, which used to bend but now just sort of hunches over like Lurch.

We shoved the damn thing out the front door where it awaits a morning chopping with a saw and some creative rebuilding to become a snazzy two piece unit.

Whether or not any of this gets finished by C's birthday is no longer certain.

No stress here.......grrrrrr.
