1034 - CND men win gold in hockey

Day 1034 I thought I was asleep early just after 11 but Diego and Shaina had other ideas. He wanted out before 1 then again at 2, my tooth woke me at 5 and Shaina arrived home after socializing and watching part of the hockey game at 6 am. Needless to say 7:30 was time for a coffee and shower. I may as well have watched Canada win gold in mens hockey!

I staged a few more photos after a brain wave while not sleeping to use the chicken wire frames for sunglasses! Britt ran to do dog chores at Stouts just before a customer picked up her new red coffee table.


this is our gate.. bit hard to get horses out to start conditioning when the gate is under 5 feet of snow
Britt did do some cleaning in her room and sorted hair & beauty products in her bath room purging a big bag. Today's biggest project for me was to create a chippy paint chair; this required a full paint then sanding most of it back off then hand waxing the first coat which is a time eater with spindles but the wax keeps it in character to the paint and finish  of this chair.




finished and staged
pretty orchid, my daily hope for spring

Sharon stopped to pickup Chanel late afternoon. Shaina spent most of the day sleeping but left for work soon after for her 4 pm shift as Britt and I were trying to get her car out. Darren popped over to help give it a quick tug after I found the tow strap was in the truck at the airport, THANKS Darren!
I waxed a growth ruler clear and dark for a client. as well as paint a 2nd coat and wax the candle holder in both clear and dark. Britt and I both cooked supper before she was off to watch TV and I updated the blog. The chippy chair had interest right away but the gal is in Grande Prairie, I will look into grey hounding it part way to her daughters
Sheldon sent a few pictures of wolves he saw at work
 and caribou but it was a movie.. so picture in your head
time to go read some more of my book
