I have to comment. You are the epitome of “getting it done.” I know as women we are capable of doing anything we desire, but I’ve never seen a woman build an entire bed, paint it, change the wall color suddenly, lift the bed to put the carpet under it, then still hang everything back up. I would’ve asked for a whole crew and a carpenter 😂😂Kudos to you! Very inspiring.
