Do-It-Yourself

I'm in a do-it-yourself mood lately. Maybe it's the list. I'm determined to build a base for our bed that has storage cubbies along with a headboard. I went to Schutte lumber on the Boulevard today. They have exotic woods. They aren't cheap but I figure it'd be cheaper to make something with it myself than buy something pre-made. I might be forced to perform another do-it-yourselfer...dying my hair blonde. Apparently my dear friend & stylist is against the idea. I'm trying to talk her into it. I've threatened to do it myself. I saw her quiver. I think I'm breaking her down. Still nothing I can completely cross off my list. Sigh...
