These are evil days and, right now, we seem to be on the cusp of a dreadful turn.
Therefore I was especially pleased to have a project this evening. A reader – I don’t know who – sent me a prayer bench.
Some assembly required.
About a half hour later…
The directions were ridiculous and the small parts had escaped their little plastic bag… if they had ever been within. But I figured it out.
Last week I had another project as well…
That was a happier day, filled with a bit more joy. But joy is… tidal.
We persevere.

I’m looking for something similar to your 2nd item for my rectory- do you have a link for it?
That kneeler looks like it’ll be brutal for the knees. Are you going to put a cushion on it? Or are you planning to offer up the pain?
Good for you, exceptional projects. I wonder if an indulgence could be granted for persevering through the assembly of one of these furniture kits. The challenge would be remaining in a state of grace throughout the assembly process. Not using our Lord’s name in vain could prove difficult.
What’s the purpose of the latter item?
Maximilian75…. Good question.
Beautiful work! Being lost in a project is a superb way to spend time today. It’s a nice bit of escapism and we could all use it.
Spiffy.
Maximilian 75 and tho: That may be the new SVVAS archive vault. Or a pizza oven.
I was thinking recently about trying to buy a prie dieu in England. But I have no idea where to start looking (other than perhaps Ebay).
