THERE ARE SOOOO MANY TOPics to write about today i can barely stand it...
Some of you may be old enough to remember the problem of My sexy scissors in the same drawer as Goldie the ghost of our left hand drawer. The basic problem was every time I turned around my left hand drawer was overflowing with scissors a variety of sizes and shapes.. I have a feeling the whole thing was organized buy some camera people but still it was a little bit of alarming situation to open that drawer and have six or eight brand new pair of scissors there that I never opened at mail call or put there-----this went on for about a week we have a lot of scissors around here now due to that episode. if not Goldie... then WHO?
well you know strange things do happen around here and right now we have a problem where doors seemed to be reproducing at an alarming rate.
I don't know about the reproductive cycle of a wooden door. We have doors popping up all over the place. it you think I'm kidding..
I knew about the very nice cedar door which is my project table in the overflow room of the house.. and the second indoor door of the same beautiful cedar wood which has been stashed for quite a while behind the spiral staircase... known doors.....but from there.......
I started yesterday thinking I would like to have a door from the laundry room into what was our meat shack---where we used to shred the roast beef ends that we were given from a roast beef sandwich store... apparently OSHA didn't like anyone's fingers closer than 1/2 inch to the blade that was slicing,.... which left a respectable lump of roast beef. which we could chop up for the dogs and on occasion make Stew out of it ourselves ----it was perfectly good.. at any rate----- we used to cut it up by hand while we sat in front of the fireplace and then we got into shredding it with a wood chipper which really was very efficient at shredding up roast beef ends... although there was a considerable SPLATTER FACTOR so i built-- literally hammered together.... the shack where that was pretty much what they did in there... it has washable walls to deal with said splatter.... with the walk in freezer right next door.. about 15 tubs of roast beef would get dropped off in the freezer every week or two and be shredded - then the chipper would be washed in dawn and rinsed and very carefully put back in the shed---
In trying to figure the location of the door to connect the meat shack to a new laundry apartment, I opened the meat shack door and was shocked on 2 counts... firstly- there—way in the back. I could see a lovely what I would call a Christian door- brand new—door only—no frame ------but secondly the entire building was filled.... I mean filled.... I could not even get room to stand inside the door—with an amazing collection of all those things that rush to fill any available space . boxes ---cartons--- fencing( that I had been looking for)---
Turns out that new Christian door got there by carley who found it over the hunt club being thrown out----- so being a good truck driver she put it in the back of her truck and bought it to crazy acres... ok....
I mentioned that to bud. and he said go look at the back of the T-tent. somebody left an indoor door there complete with frame and sure enough lying on its side there's a brand new indoor door.. which doesn't necessarily go with the outdoor door that currently appeared////in the G tent which is the big white tent. .
.. so bud came up yesterday having walked through the cellar to get here.. and said you know there's another indoor door in the garage of the house. Lying on it’s side...
So who’s counting? Does anyone know of another “place” where 6 doors appear totally unattached to any building?
Has to be our “GOLDIE”-----Ghost of the left hand drawer...----
WHAT WILL be interesting is to see if those doors can actually be used in the “carlene relocation” plans. Goldie is danm good at that stuff...
