700 - accent table nearly done pine tables 1/3

Day 700 found a low lying fog over the pastures. It was much thicker heading to town to drop Britt at school but again burned off soon. The amount of snow we have now seems more than the winter and the chilly mornings and not so warm days make for what seems a crazy long winter.

At lunch I ran errands picking up Gaba as prescribed by acupuncturist, drop off mail, paid annual business registration, washed the car but for no good reason as it was splashed soon after in the melting sun, deposit at bank, fill car with gas ($90 UGH), get turkey ham and buns for Easter dinner, drop another t4 off at accountant and head home.

Back at home I unloaded chairs in storage trailer, the enclave just beetled over the semi frozen lake south of the house. I also put the1st layer of wax on the corner accent table and sanded the pine tables. After some time I buffed the wax and applied the glaze finish. I put a coat of condioner on the tables and soon after put on the dark stain.

 sit for a bit then wipe off

 to get this, now to decide on the bottom color.. I was going to do the blue of accent table and glaze darker but also considered white with glaze... hmmm opinions??

Britt walked from the gate again as the bus driver refuses to drive in after school claiming to soft of road..OK crazy driver. After a bit of flogging she got busy picking dog doo and was soon found plucking winter hair out of Pepper.

Sheldon had a big date night with his new work mates. The company gave him Flames ticket and park pass for tonight and the fellows went out to Fat Burger for supper prior too. Seems the new job already has many perks. They posted a Stampede party, golf tournament and the Christmas party at the Palliser already too.

Shaina sent me a link to pictures of her one crash.. check it out here, click the right button to sequence thru. Amazingly she only got grazed by the hoof in the near last photo. Miss Haydee did a good job of missing her in the rest.

I spent a few hours doing dreaded accounting, mostly for my incorporation. Seems I only have a few more days until my year end and these were journal corrections from last year end! Britt and I just grazed veggies for supper and she got busy cleaning her room, TV room and bathroom for the company arriving for Easter. She had cat litter and dishwasher on her list as well so kept quite busy :-)

I managed to create more work on the accent table hoping to wax early but only ruined the glaze. Luckily it was only one shelf so washed off and started again and will leave to really dry this time. Next plan in action was to put first coat of polycrylic on the tables.
