Tidy Tuesday - Empowerment

Family Rogue's Gallery
Empowerment - the ability to make changes in ones own life...from the word, power.  That's my definition  :)  And that's what I'm working on...learning the skills necessary to make changes and not have to depend on someone else to make them for me.

I've wanted my husband to make a wall for me where I can display family pictures.  I've had the location and materials ready for over a month but my husband is so busy that he hasn't found the time.  Tired of waiting, I took matters into my own hands.  I became empowered.  :)

I cut the sheetrock, hung it and painted it and installed the shelves, using the level to make sure everything was straight and using the power drill to put everything together.  And I did it all by myself!  I'm quite happy with the results.
