perimeter walks start

Friday is another beauty day, still in the above 0 temps in the day with tons of sunshine which makes it even better. I worked on dark waxing the two salt and pepper sets, waxing back of jewelry frame then distressing the Xmas frame while Sheldon rolled out a bale and fixed the center pole on the new horse shed.

The chinook sunshine called for a full perimeter walk with the dogs, it was lovely other than trying not to roll your ankle in the newly ripped up areas. The snow though soft was still deceivingly deep in many areas.  Sheldon was rolling up the old barb wire as we passed him to complete the circuit. It was then time for the dreaded poop scoop!

 hahaha the foot prints cracked me up.. Big D on the.. left Lola on the right

I was finishing up as Britt and Grady rolled in. They made lunch, ok Britt made canned soup but at least on her own then actually cleaned her room and dishwasher before they headed back to school just before 1. Soon after the delivery truck arrived with the barn wood.

after his big walk, Diego called in his masseuse and resident ear cleaner ;-)

I buffed the S&P and staged for a couple pictures, they are ready to go. The jewelry frame is buffed to awaiting the customer's fabric choice. Sheldon took off hunting around the area. I started sand, repair and scrub a tall dresser I have ordered from my stock. She wanted green but after the color we planned seemed more blue I gave her more options, end result, tumbleweed :-) I also came up with a great idea using a dresser base and new casters I had laying around. Together they will make a great moving paint podium.

After supper I had Sheldon help me get the casters screwed the holes I drilled on my project (Thanks Prince) then I put first coat of paint on the tall dresser and sprayed hardware.. Shaina stopped out to meet Lola and have a quick visit. She headed home just before 9 and soon after Britt was home from work then working out. I put the 2nd coat on the dresser and hardware while Britt played with the dogs. We came in at 10:30 and she gave Coco a long needed bath!

 cool idea right?

big mouth has both her toys in his trap!
