> I didn't think that I would get both a cupboard above the stool and the two
> rack shelves above the towel bars, but I did. We got them both up today,
> and we got the vertical blinds up in the sitting room up here where my
> office is and the TV and stero is. It's really begining to look nice up here.
>
> You see, this window here is a north window, and people can see at night
> when we're up here, so we thought it would be neat to put some vertical
> blinds. I got to pick them out yesterday. lol.
>
> Now, I have to stand on a stool to put towels and hand towels and wash rags
> on the first rack shelf, but that's okay. We didn't want it too low,
> otherwise people might hit their head on it when they came in the bathroom
> door.
>
> Vernon has one window to finish in the bathroom down stairs, and a few
