At the cost of only one bloodied finger, the shelves are up

Floor to ceiling shelving via IKEA. Already looks lived in, doesn't it? Please note, only about half the books are up there and the ones that are up are stacked double thick. The kid has too many books. Must convince her to give all those darn 2nd grade level books she likes so much to the school library.

There are also double this many toys waiting to go up. Luckily we have one more shelf pretty much like these next to her closet. And when we run out of space, it becomes time to make HARD DECISIONS about what's staying and what's going.

Stage 1 complete!!!

When was it finished? How'd your midnight shopping run go?

Didn't end up going on the midnight shopping run - this state pictured was achieved about 10pm.

Today will be all cooperation just to get the groceries and get the bed done. Sigh.

I've always liked IKEA and those shelves are one reason why. It's been hard to find since I came to America. In Britain, at least where I lived, there were all over the place.
