It's Just a Sweet Sweet Fantasy

Oh dear gawd. 

Why do we do this to ourselves? 

Yesterday We put in four?   today... we had to move it out from the fence, and put the back ones in, and the roof ones.   I am completely hopeless.I don't know why he even asks me to help... I'm more of a hindrance. 

I was holding the bottom panes of glass as he slid them into position.  I pulled the sticky tape backing off the spongey stuff.   

I cried with hopelessness, while I watched him try to understand the picture guide on how to build an automatic venting system.... (we didn't put it in, it was TOOO complicated), maybe tomorrow. 

This gap - where he is sticking his head is where the vent should be....  We had to slide the whole frame along the groove in the roof, and then lower it in to place.  He was standing on a stool outside the green house, and he says, "you stand on this step inside the greenhouse and catch it and pull it from the  middle". 

Do you have any idea how long it took my brain to compute how to get on a stool with nothing to hold on to.   I nearly went right through the pane of glass against the wall. 

Once we had it in place, we realised the catch was on back to front.  I had to stand with my arms right above my head to hold the glass in place, while himself unscrewed the catch, worked out which way it was supposed to go, and then put it in again.    

That was fun.
