Chaos Reigns - Thematic Photography

I had no idea what I was going to show for Carmi's 'chaotic' theme until  chaos intervened. 

I was supposed to be making coffee when I needed a spoon and then...-

Bob's Hope Sinks
..the dummy drawer under the sink came away in my hand as the brackets holding it in place sheared off. I should have opened the next draw on the left which held the cutlery. To add insult to injury the dummy draw front was too heavy to hold by the knob; it fell to the floor with a crash clouting me on the knee as its way down.

My wife rushed into the kitchen, thinking that the crash she had heard was me collapsing - it had to be she said as there had not been a single curse.

Now I'm the world's worst handy man but I do have a hoard of things in a large container in our garden shed. Chaos reigned when it was emptied out to allow me to search for replacement brackets and screws.

Screw You!
Pick the brackets out of a chaotic pile of screws.

Twenty-four hours later the dummy draw front is back in place - sans brackets, sans screws. Thanks to the local hardware shop I've learnt a new trick. 

Should this happen to you just stick it back in place with,, of all things,, strips of Velcro.

Job done!
