Intro to my garage

So me and my family are having lots of changes in our immediate future.


Can't disclose too much at this time because pretty much everything is sensitive.


Basically I'm being that person on Facebook that posts a vague post saying something like


"So Sad :(("


Then when it is commented on says "Don't wanna talk about it"


Seriously, why say anything if you wont talk about it?


Well I'm saying that so I can say this, we are having lots of changes and because of the mystery changes, I am doing projects.


We recently moved into a new house from about a block away, not far, but when we did we were blessed privileged to have a garage. Wait, hold up, did I just say blessed? Ok retraction.


With the garage brought upon many projects to take place. My husband Jamal, now has room to refinish the dresser that has been an ongoing project for over a year now. Thankfully we are upon completion. Hopefully moving it into the house to be used within the week. Also since we moved, we have made many close friends with our neighbors. 3 of our neighbors actually do woodwork. They go and get free pallets from stores (of course with permission) and build things.


Well I've been watching them for months now, specifically 4 months and been becoming more and more interested in the craft.


Fast forward to now, I have talked Jamal into buying me a saw.



This is my baby and so far, a few weeks with this baby, I still have all my fingers so that's awesome.


I have gotten some of the smaller pallets and am making my home mine.


I am slowly acquiring paint, brushes, and all the tools of the trade.


This is where you will see all my masterpieces/disasters.

P.S. If you remind me, I'll show you the crazy room that is our garage full of randomness.
