After purchasing a set of hinges today, I installed them and fastened the door to the front.

At that point I used a piece of wood to prop the door open for the picture. No, that is not my permanent door holder, just in case you wondered.

I pulled out the partially finished kitchen sink to have another look at it.

I made up a temporary frame for the outside, to simulate a counter top. Purpose is to figure out how to mount this to the counter.

Thanks Ro_sie, but the answer is no. We had a close relative with a major issue, that required immediate attention.

I had to prioritize for the week. I'll be back at it this week, though.

Good for you fulltimin. Family is important and you and your wife are doing what needs to be done. dont know if I told this. My husband passed away early New Years day. My children have been making sacrifices to be with me and helping me adjust. I dont kow what I would have done without them. Be strong!

Sorry to hear that, as I was unaware he had passed away. You have my condolences.

Good to hear you have family support to help you though. Tough times are always better with their help.

Always remember the good times. They are a treasure.

I am sorry to hear of your husband's death. Family is a great comfort and help during such times, allow them to give their support. It will be a blessing to them as well to yourself. Sorry for your loss may God's comfort be with you.

Thank you fulltimin and PastorCharlie. My daughters are being very supportive. I have wonderful neighbors too. My next door neighbor is a Pastor and he and his wife have been wonderful.

I finally got to work today. I backed up a little bit and worked on the rear shelf below the back window.

Even though I had it installed, I had no way to hold it up, so I thought I would fix that.

I added a thin piece of plywood to the bottom that is hinged and holds the shelf in place when the shelf is pulled up.
