Todd’s impressing me with his motivation and DIY prowess. He spent much of last weekend in our basement putting together a workbench from scratch. I didn’t know it until now, but he spent many weekends in his twenties at Habitat for Humanity hammering nails and whatnot (whatnot in this case means picking up girls. Apparently Habitat is a great place to meet chicks), and it prepared him for DIY projects.
The workbench still has a few finishing touches to go: he still needs to attach the shelf that will go on the bottom level, for instance (that’s the board under the table that you can see in the photo). I’m thrilled because I need some shelves in our kitchen for all my cookbooks, everyone needs bedside tables, and I’m sure there will be a million and a half other projects in the near future, too.

Nice! Todd is full of surprises!
Woo Hoo – Go Handy Todd!
Apparently in between picking up girls he picked up skills!
