A Project

As longtime Fans know, Our Hero is fond of mousing about in the basement. The basement is filled with wonders. Whenever Julie goes down to put some laundry in the washer or the dryer, and Joe is around, he accompanies her (Crocs required; socks, too, but just for right now). Lately, Julie has been down in the basement a bit more than usual. She's planning to have a yard sale early this summer so she's been sorting through things and organizing it as she goes. This morning, she was down there post-bacon and eggs, with Clara on her back in the Ergo and Joe flitting about doing "a project." As Joe put it, "I got to do a project." He could not, in fact, come upstairs when Julie went to put Clara down for her nap so occupied was he with his project. Said project was removing all of the Jumparoo pieces from their box, placing them on or in front of the steps (safety first!), and beginning to assemble them.
