848 - more project progress

Day 848 I was up and off to work while Sheldon and Shaina slept in. They apparently got up and worked on rotating the brakes on her car which was good as they sent the wrong parts which I picked up earlier this week. Shaina works today at 2, coincidentally for the Cavalier golf tournament.
I had a very busy morning at work and stayed a bit thru lunch getting home at 1. Sheldon was having lunch so I grabbed a quick bite before heading to my sweat shop. I was very busy waxing the ruler, table legs and body as well as coffee table legs in the house. I also waxed the 2 signs and the plant stand. The end table was sanded a final time then I stained it. I stopped around 5 to enjoy a slushy Bellini Sheldon whipped up then watered my garden a bit in the 27 degree sunshine.

He was out installing the last of the posts and finishing the railing while continuing to water trees. I went back in and polyed the end table top and painted the legs and body. I also started antiquing the growth ruler and the 2 signs. By this time Sheldon was ready to pull a dead poplar and plant the tree Grama and Papa bought us. I helped him get it planted before I came in to cook supper. Britt who arrived home from her sleepover at 5 cooked perogies for me then scurried back to her TV room for the night.


 
After supper I headed back out and to continue my antiquing. I did the table legs and body then the plant stand. Some I love and some I am unsure of, well the gifts and the table I'm unsure but the table I can always change up anytime. The gifts you worry the person likes them. I also put another coat of paint and poly on the end table before cleaning up and coming in at 10. The work shop was a busy place today but needs to keep in high gear as I had 2 more growth rulers ordered tonight as well as another request to paint a dining table.
