In my search for pictures of my mom for this post, it became very obvious to me that there are so few pictures of her because she is always knee deep in a project. Especially when she visits me! Poor thing! I got tickled because 95% of the pictures of her, she is painting something, sewing something or repairing something. She is a thinker and a doer. I can come up with an idea but she can figure out how to make it work. She is super talented and artistic.
Got a drawer that won't shut? No problem. Give Lana a few minutes, an ice pick, a staple gun and some WD 40 and that drawer will be shutting.
Need to figure out how to build a 3D mural of Godzilla attacking a city? No worries and Lana makes it ten times cooler by adding lights.
Have a vague idea for some curtains, but no pattern? For most people that might be a problem, but not for Lana. With a measuring tape, notepad, pencil and hours of calculations and figuring, Lana can make you the curtain of your dreams.
Need to completely overhaul a bathroom that is stuck in the eighties? I mean, replace tiles, rip up carpet, lay down tile, replace light fixtures....only have five days? No problem, let's get started.
She rolls in with enthusiasm and I try to kill her with projects every single time. Sorry Mom! Thanks for always being my partner in crime and please enjoy these photos of some of our projects!
Have a beautiful Mother's day today and know that in spite of the photo evidence of me working you to death.....
I really do love you!!!
Happy Mother's Day!
