SURPRISE!!!! HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!!!!!


Happy Father's Day Kurt ~ I hope you're having a GREAT day today! I have a little surprise for you. Remember how hectic things were the month before you left for Virginia? I remember looking at your "to do" list and thinking, "there is absolutely NO way he's EVER going to get all of those things done!" Well, with the exception of cleaning your workshop, YOU DID! I know it drove you crazy to pack it up and leave without tidying up. Every time I walked by the door to your shop I would smile because it literally looked like a tornado (you working like a madman) had touched down in our basement! Do you remember?????

Ahhhhh.....Your workshop!!!

The pathway......

The sawdust....

The chaos....

The utter destruction!!!

Hmmmm... now where was that tool? (I'm positive you knew where everything was, but the question was, would you really remember when we moved back here in 2-3 years?)

One day I had a thought.... I thought "wouldn't it be nice if Kurt didn't have to come home and clean this mess up someday?" Sooooo.....I went to work. I worked for an entire week. Tyler came one day and helped too. Alax helped me move the heavy things on Saturday.....

DON'T PANIC! I promise I didn't throw anything important away ;-)

I swept, and swept, and sneezed, and swept some more.

I found a place for everything. (You can rearrange things where you want them when we move back.)

Now everything has a place in these nice storage cabinets.

Things are hung up.....

Dusted off...

And sorted into these bins - i.e. electrical, plumbing, welding/soldering, pipe fittings, screws, nails, etc. etc..... oh, and there's one bin labeled "what the heck is this tool???"

I cleared away all of your power tools....

and put them back in their cases...

all of your tools are now in a TOOL BOX...

Sorry to say that I couldn't figure out how to put the socket set back in it's case, so....this is the best I could do.

I hope you will smile and know that I just wanted to help.
please don't be mad ;-)
Love you!
Tam

Thank you Babe, it was the one thing I really wanted to do before I left that I just didn't have time to finish. Who else has a Wife that would do this for them?
