Many, many months ago the wooden door to my room finally broke after sustaining more pressure than should have ever been put upon it. Last night, it deteriorated further until it became nothing more than a piece of wood attached to a frame via two hinges. Fortunately (for me) the home across the street burned down and we rescued a door from it before they threw it away. With me with no door, I set about the task of removing the old one and installing the new. This took much longer than I'd thought, and it probably wasn't the smartest decision to do it at 4 in the morning when the rest of the house was sleeping. Once I figured out the best way to get the hinges off of the old door (the bottom one was a real pain) and a way to get the new door in, I thought success had been achieved until I saw that the hinges on the new door were slightly lower than on the old. This will likely mean more work, but I can say I'm proud of my effort in all of this.
