    Billy and Ed need their own videos - since they have an easier rapport between themselves than by themselves. They both are skilled at reconstruction and eyeing and visualization. It’s something that takes lots of practice and a knack for reconfiguring. I also like the men with their spouses and families. Good to see Michael enjoying life.

    I think you should purchase more of the large cabinets you saw today. These are oversized and would cost a fortune to have cabinets, that size, custom made. The way they are made looks like they could stand side by side as a pair, or stand alone. I am sure you could find many places for them to work in the convent.

    Oh, those shelves! I'm so glad you decided not to cut them up, Billy. Such a beautiful piece of furniture, in such marvelous shape, it would be a sin abd a shame to cut it. The room off the kitchen is the perfect spot! On the top level you could put the things you don't use as often: holiday utensils, light but large dishes, etc., with your heavy stuff on the bottom to keep the balance (and it's easier and safer to keep them closer to the ground!).
    I wish I could go to that shop with you; I keep seeing so many lovely things...*sigh*. And I'd buy something lovely that I have no place for! 😂 Can't wait for the pour, all the hard work everyone put into the kitchen will be worth it to finally have the concrete/cement (I forgot which you're using) floor down, the heating system ready to hook up, and the green light to finish up the kitchen! Those tiles you got for the floor will look so inviting when they're down. See you tomorrow!

    Important it was to put this big furniture together because, only this way you can imagine where it should go afterwards.

    It was so nice to see Michael! I absolutely love Ed and Anna, what good friends you have Billy. I think your library ladder is missing its wheels and it’s maybe a bit to tall, they don’t usually have that much of a slant and distance from the shelves. I have two in my library (not near as large as the room yours is in) at home and they are both on wheels, that makes it less likely that the unit it’s attached to will get banged up. They just glide from side to side without having to be lifted off and on. You have exquisite taste and a great talent.

    Billy, every time your in the chapel I think back to the video you made when you were discussing the chapel balcony and the room where the stairs were to access it. The stairs you looked at were metal but it probably would have had a wooden spiral staircase, and the wall on the upper floor would have gone around the opening to prevent someone from falling down the stairs.
