  • For My Next Trick…

    April

    I’ll need a roasting pan, just an everyday average roasting pan, and a bunch of other stuff. See photos below.

    And with my hammer, and all the stuff – or possibly just some of the stuff, and a bunch of instructions that I may or may not understand, I will attempt to build a harp. Yes, a harp. Why a harp? Because our daughter is in the 4th grade, and this is her music class project. Everyone knows that when your kid is in the 4th grade, the parents get to do the homework! The most difficult project list can’t consist of strings and a kleenex box – no way! That would be too “4th grader’ish”! These kids need to learn basic power tool skills, right away!

    I must now disappear behind my big black magic cape with my flashlight to read “liquid steel” application instructions. Harps with holes? Can’t happen.

    One thing is certain – if the thing doesn’t play, it will at least be pretty (see blue enamel spray paint).

    Holy crap!

    I can say that when my 4th grader had to build a Longhouse in the fall, I was completely…well, stupid! My husband came to the rescue. I heard there’s another big project coming up, but so far we haven’t heard exactly what. I’m scared to death. 😉
