bird netting for our blueberries, the "Harry Potter" closet under the stairs
Now that our garden is starting to bloom, "J" and I are starting to notice the state of the garden. One thing we neglected last growing season is that harsh weather damaged the frame that supports the bird netting over our blueberries. I had built it out of "furniture grade" PVC pipe, and a couple of the joints just weren't quite bird netting grade. It took a while to find our old, ship-to-store order, but I found it.
Update: Somehow, while shopping for replacement parts, I didn't quite get around to placing the orders. But I will.
With the nice weather, I also took the opportunity to cut some of the cheap baseboard trim for the closet under the stairs. (We call it the "Harry Potter closet", in reference to the character's away-from-school lodging in "a cupboard under the stairs".) The stock from the store wasn't quite as long as the closet, so I needed to use some of the middle piece for the ends of side pieces. I had previously made cuts that would allow easier gluing, making diagonal cuts that increased the surface area to be glued. I had also trimmed a section for the end of the right side, and glued it to the main right side piece. I ran out of time for the actual gluing, however.
Besides that, I wasted entirely too much time playing Star Trek Fleet Command today.
