It's never as easy or as SIMPLE as it looks

I have been putting off a "SMALL" project for some time now, installing a closet organizing system in the hall closet.  Sounds pretty simple and for those of you who know me, you know I have done MANY of these things and so I should be able to do it with relative ease.


Looks like it should be easy - 2 screws go into the support bar and into the studs.  2 tracks go on that and 3 screws in each of those.  Cut the wire shelving, hang the 4 cantilevers and install the shelves!  NOT SO FAST!  Because of the way the house was built - NO studs behind that wall to screw into!!!!  UGH


The end result after several hours of wall removal, stud installation, wall rebuild and the installation of the closet system!

Yes, those are my clothes.  Not enough room for me in the master closet. LOL  When the addition is done to the back side of the house, the master bedroom will have a walk in closet and a larger bathroom.  This will get a couple of shelves and some baskets that hang from the bottom shelf to become the linen closet.

Sping Weather

So, evidently SW MO has interesting weather as Winter transitions into Spring. 


And the hail came down - Topper didn't seem to mind.



And then there were 2

After many years of loving the miniature horse world through ownership, training and showing, Cherilyn said goodbye to her horses.










Now there are only two horses - Topper and Tattoo 



So now it's time to raise a glass - ........ VIDEO  It's the first song I thought of dealing with horses :)
