Day 1046 was an early day, poor Shaina was up at 6 am to get more tylenol then I was up at 7. Sure gives you an early start to the day. I made coffee and checked bids and sales. As I was in the kitchen I heard Diego whimpering. I went out and his back right leg was sprawled out sideways and he could not get up. Clearly the angle was causing pain so after a couple attempts finally grabbing under the belly and heaving I got him up and he was on his way out. It was like lifting a 175 pound drunk man!
Time to snap a picture of the candlesticks, I changed my mind about dark wax too and will see if this is a look people want.
customer wanted to choose wallpaper color.. she chose....... red!
Kyra left 1030 and Britt followed heading to her house to make a birthday cake for a surprise party this w/e however soon Britt called in a panic having her car quit her just before the traffic lights in town. After a few calls to Sheldon and her we had a plan in action. Shaina left for work soon after and as she stopped to apprise the situation she found Britt had a capable young man pushing her car to the nearby parking lot. Seems he also went and fetched her a jerry can of gas to see if it was the issue but no luck. Car repair guys were called into fix it while Kyra picked Britt up and off to bake the cake they went.
Back at the ranch, a lady stopped for mirror then another for comics.
I worked on a custom paint job on a bookshelf I recently bought. The same gal who bought the red love sign and mirror consigned it as well so time to scrub thoroughly and put on 2 coats of red paint.
how do you paint with a fuzzy cat like this one who likes to sleep in your projects!
While it dried I waxed the lazy susan then hand painting some cute graphics on it.
I also sanded down the tops of 2 wooden stools readying for a new makeover. what color for the base??
Since she has no car and Kyra dropped Britt at work at 3 I ran to town to pick her up at 7. I grabbed supper at A&W before but she was not quite ready, needing to tan after she closed so I spent 15 minutes on the jiggle machine waiting. Have you tried this?
Once she was finished and all locked up we were off grabbing Tims, dropping one off with Shaina who was at her 2nd job of the day, Target. 11-4 at the Roadhouse, a steak and deep fried pickle supper there then off to Target 5-9. Busy girl she is.. but she has a bank account to match!
We scooted home where we heated our burgers and B went to TV room. I got busy glazing the bookcase and lazy susan too. It needs a good day or more to dry before waxing and I want to send back to Oyen with Mom. Her and Travis on on their way here to help with the Paetz move their w/e and bunking here. They are making a stop in Drumheller to pick up some treasure from cousin Lyle.
They arrived at 10:30, unloaded furniture and had a drink and visit and off to bed by midnight :-)
