My handyman skills

So, my wife thought that this little rack couldn't hold up to the strain of all the things that the teachers asked the kids to bring to school. As can be seen here, the backpack in the center is very full, I'm sure that it weighs more than my 9 month old daughter, in fact. My wife had it sitting on the floor, telling people that the rack would be pulled out of the wall. Now I felt like this was insulting to the job that I did with those little racks, so I had to put the backpack up there to test it. And looks like it is fine.

No, it is not insulting to your handyman skills.....it is more I was insulting to that of IKEA. Sorry, but I had that guy at work who was constantly telling me that all IKEA stuff isn't very tough. I'm not worried it will come off the wall, it's more the hook will rip off the board!

I love you dear....I know you are a good handyman if it's not too hard :)
