Never close enough

Oh My Lord !!!

Welp, it's been 8 long years since I had to assemble a crib, and though I'm sure then it would leave a scar to last a lifetime (the assembly part) somehow I forgot what it was all about until tonight...

Geez...how many screws, bolts, and springs and little plastic thingies does it take to put a crib together?

Well, that depends on who has the most patience, who is holding the screwdriver, who is lying on there back holding the spring that holds the mattress, and last but not least, who will answer the phone when it rings.....

I threw the screwdriver down the hallway, dropped the bed spring 188 times (47 of them being on my head, or fingers) and then finally hubby calls on the phone and says "Oh thats easy, lemme tell ya what to do..."

Well, that phone call came an hour, and 15 bruises too late

Anyway, its all together now and looks so sweet sitting there waiting on it's new tenent which will be here in no time at all.

If you are about to tackle this adventure...
Meditate FIRST !!!

Life is something that happens when you can't get to sleep.

Been there, about 9 years ago, and yes the memories (horrors?) are as fresh as the babies homecoming, I had no help from my now ex, his mother (groan) helped me, we put the thing together, so that the sliding part was backward,,,,,,,sigh.....i took it apart and fixed it after she went home, lol,,,,,,I hope ai never have to go thru it again! good luck

I wish all could find the true happiness I have found,,in the eyes of Mike
