Day 856 was another early one. Today Sheldon was up and gone with Craig by 7:30 am to watch
the Shaw Charity Classic golf event in Calgary. I could not sleep so got up too and enjoyed a coffee and games before Britt headed to school. The morning was gorgeous. I started the dreaded laundry and got a table ready for lady to pick up this morning. I also fit in a long awaited gel pedicure.
Just after 9 I got the 4-H record books out finally to mark. I am not sure why I procrastinated but it seemed I was always busy with something else but since up early and quiet in the house I pulled them out and got marking finishing at noon, whew and there were only 7!
The afternoon was spent in the garage washing projects, sanding and filling damaged areas. Amazing the shape some things are in, gum, jam, paint cigarette burns, you name it. But with a bucket of water, scrub brush, elbow grease and wood filler along with sandpaper you can prep the surface for a new life. I kept the laundry inside going too.
all after good cleaning and repairs
this poor table should shine up nice, not sure how so many burns got in the top
Britt was home from school at 4 ready for a long w/e of work at the arena and hopes of back to school shopping!! Just before 5 another storm blew in causing wind and rain but again, not much and it ended fairly soon.
I cooked up supper and Britt and I started. Sheldon was dropped off just after 6:30, ate supper, washed pots and pans and promptly napped on the couch, hard day in the sun! I vacuumed trying to stay on top of the Lexi hair.. O my I am so glad Coco does not shed. It is a daily job!!
I set up a
new fruit fly trap as they were on to my old one and this one caught about a dozen in no time.! For our relaxing evening, Britt, Sheldon and I watched 3 episodes of Amazing Race Canada!
Today is also Aaron's birthday, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
