A year and half ago I posted a picture of a nightstand. I started on a dresser but somehow it got covered with a tarp. 
Smile  Not too long the tarp fell off and this finally got finished.

Nice, good thing the tarp fell off. Welcome back (again).

I started with absolutely nothing. Now, thanks to years of hard work, careful planning, and perseverance, I find I still have most of it left.

Very nice work. Don't worry about time (unless you're trying to make money at it) I've been working on a secretary for over 7 years. It's an antique reproduction and I hope it's not an antique by the time I finish it.

Right now the tarp is covering the side panels I put together for a writing desk. I'm waiting to see what it comes up with.

Glad you liked the dresser. Thanks for commenting.

I try to remember what a friend told me when I retired. She said that no matter what I start I have the rest of my life to finish it. 

Thanks for commenting.
