Sevan and Kash usually take a break from GoodGym on Mondays, but for Ms K, they've found a space in their calendars and visited her in the evening, after work.

"Happy New Year!", Ms K welcomed the GoodGymers.

In fact, the two saw Ms K for a mission on New Year's Day to build a bed. Since then, the lady's bedroom underwent quite a transformation! The wardrobes have been filled, chairs brought in, one of the walls repainted, and rugs covered the floor. Most importantly, the bed, which Sevan and Kash had started building, had been finished with some help from Ms K's friend. It was great to see the room usable, and a proper place to sleep for Ms K already functional. The only thing missing was the wardrobes' doors.

Sevan was hoping that attaching the hinges and hanging the doors on the two wardrobes would be pretty easy. And it was. The surprising part had nothing to do with the hinges, but the door handles. There were no holes to screw them in! As it turned out, to attach the handles, one had to drill holes in the doors - in IKEA furniture, can you believe it? Electric tools were a no-go at a GoodGym mission, so the duo focused only on attaching the doors to the wardrobes. They left the drilling for Ms K's friend, who was coming to visit the following day.

"We actually finished this mission well ahead of allocated time", Sevan triumphed.

Finally, with the wardrobes' doors closed, Ms K's bedroom looked like a proper bedroom. Well, maybe except for the handles!
