The closet Ben Banks built

So lay down a beat now.......... and continue...
This is the Closet That Ben Banks Built  here after to be called CTBBB....
(finally finished and installed just today, and by today I mean last Thurs. when I started writing this
'lil thang, Yay!)
This is the hamper that stores all our nasties 

This is the bedroom attached to the closet that now has cool shutters 
 and a whole lot more room, sleeps two weary people in comfort, 
just on this side of the CTBBB.
This is the shower that cleans up our act here
 that has a great window and is closely attached to the CTBBB.
And........This is the one (yea, Jacob for sure) that caused all the ruckus,
that hired the "Craftys" then loaned me his cutie for my lovely assistant, 
who was a blessing un-measured and whom I love forever as I look at the CTBBB.
These are the cookies (like 64 dozen)








that all my friends made 
(that still haven't been thanked properly) that got eaten by stars
and raved about daily
(watch for the BB Cookie and Salad Book in progress) and won the hearts of the crew
and made it pleasant to finish the job that is called the CTBBB.
Here is the "room mate" who helped get things started, 
 (made it do-able more like) , Drove with me to Utah and was capable and pleasant and had such a presence that made everyone better, and 
This is the spouse that surprised me @ Birthday, 
supported and encouraged, got hooked on Doc Martin
 that was introduced to it by these two(Chris and Kent)
who were angels on earth to me,
  making August possible and home-y and giving the CTBBB  more sweetness.
This is the T-Shirt that was issued quite carefully
that is strangely consoling and worn with great pleasure that will hang in the CTBBB.
This is the smile that is silly or placid
( now you be the judge) and nowI'll be working on the slow and deliberate decorating phase of the "new" Bedroom/Bath/Closet.
Updates will follow and thanks for the indulgence!  (sigh)
 Not mentioned above, but equally important were the helpers from California,
you know, Rob and Megan.
  and the Big people
(Rich and Loretta)who brought little people(Jacie, Cameron and 'lil Parker  to visit....

and the ones who held down the fort(Mac and Cammy) and sent love notes(McKenna) from Mesa.
August, now that was a ride folks!

Hooray! Hooray! Looks so very lovely! So happy for you to have the CTBBB, and that you were able to come home to it after all your hard work. You are amazing, Peg. We love you for your unending devotion, despite the utter exhaustion of your faculties, to help your son as you did. And you know you were my personal saving grace. We love you!
