weekend at donny's...

yesterday morning, i awoke with the sun and traveled to  searcy, arkansas to help my brother & his fiance move into "their" new apartment.  no, no, no...they are not "shackin" up pre-marital style, but my brother has been allowed to move in early & live there alone until novemeber when they get married... anyway, i went to help my attention deficit brother move and the process ended up being quite an adventure.  when i arrived at his old apartment, i was expecting things to be packed and ready to go, but to my surprise this is what i found...

absolutely nothing packed...and
dirty dishes stacked in the sink...and
piles of dirty clothes....and
did i say absolutely nothing packed?!
needless to say, we had a lot of work to do.  i started at 10:00 am & we did not finish all of our projects until 3:00 am.  during this long 17 hour day, donny and i:
  • unloaded a u-haul trailer full of furniture
  • washed five loads of clothes
  • built a 6 ft x 4 ft headboard & 4 ft x 2 ft coffee table
  • painted an old tv stand...AND
  • slept 4 hours
after 17 hours of work, here are some of the products of hour labor...


and the headboard...
