vitamix replaced finally

The night required another garage sleep for Lola around 1, perhaps Sheldon needs to try his firefox coyote call and eliminate the cause of her fussing. Shaina was off for Hawaii on a plane early this am, have a great trip little miss.

After coffee and jetta car search for Sheldon he went out to weed eat then mow. Now the ground actually got wet it was nice to mow without dust he said (only his 2nd time anyway) I sanded the coffee table then painted another coat on the green entry table, sanded and reassembled it once dry after lunch.

Sheldon did some work in the shop after lunch on the dump trailer as I continued my furniture. I tried staining the top of the coffee table, epic fail! Wait to dry, repaint and sand more while waiting.

The morning was sunny then got breezy and after lunch the wind continued and became grey. Will it rain again? I hope so! Sheldon picked up the Vitamix from courier yesterday, yes I sent it away Mar 26 and it arrived back June 2 after they quoted 5-8 business days repair. As a compensation they finally just sent a new one and an upgrade at that to the Professional 750. Ok I will take it.

Time to stage and post the entry table, odd to do a bigger piece in green and not blue or vintage white.

Time to chop up rhubarb I got from Goslings and with it I made 2 pies and a pan of bars. Sheldon came in as I was putting last in oven. He cooked a steak for us to share while I made the go withs. Kaylin stopped quick to drop off a table a friend of hers wants reloved. It is a cute giant cupcake holder ;)

Once the yummy supper settled we took the dogs & cats for a walk. The weather still seem threatening with occasional lightening but still nothing more than a few drops all day. On our way inside Sheldon spotted on the the shubert trees loaded with caterpillars.. GRRRRR out came the torch and a hot demise for them, all hopefully.

 thought I would share Britt's latest accolades, there is her photo from breakfast of champions where she was honored by her teacher along with others and an invite to awards this week where she will get an award too, well done Britt!
