garage purge

I was awake early and got coffee going after a peruse on Pinterest. Great news, Julio is walking much better this morning, this determined old boy has gumption.
Sheldon gave him food as he unhooked the trailer getting ready to head to town. He took in eggs for Paetz's and the girls (Shaina will pick up after her shift at golf course) along with Steve and Jenny's growth ruler (left) for PU.
He was also getting a massage, prescription safety glasses and meeting at the bank to get Britt's RESP activated. whew busy day for him. I worked on marketing for Creative Moments hoping to draw more followers and business and the blog. I also had to rescan and send forms for Britt's AEF app she needed, fingers crossed to win that one. While reading the paper this am, Sheldon came across one for our county.. due ... yesterday!!

The custom dresser is an antique and rough shape so sanding and filling were in order to start.


There was also no frost ;) however there was a haze over the grass at 8. The day was another lovely one with sun and no wind, just that alone makes for a great day. When I went to take the wrap off Julio I found he had an abscess break thru the coronet band, this explains lots more.
I couldn't stop with the adding more stain to table top and applied yet another coat. I need to sell this and get out of my face or I keep tweaking it ;) I hauled it out after drying a bit and took some new pictures to post. Work got started on the custom dresser with removing hardware, filling, sanding and repairs.



Sheldon was home around 2 with Edo but it seems he forgot to pick out and order his glasses so after helping me tend to Julio he put some screws in the rails that keep popping out and was off back to town. I soaked Julio's foot with hibatane/epsom salt water then sprayed with apple cider vinegar. I hope this draws more of the pus out then he spent awhile in the round pen. Vet Jody said to soak for 3 days so back out I went and had old crusty soak for 5 minutes ;)

Once he got back we got busy in the garage and went thru both big shelving units purging and piling and loading in the truck. All headboards will go up in mez to store until I find a wood worker to help me build my benches, Christmas decorations were sent up as well. I hauled around the remaining cabinets up there and will use for storage too. We moved one of the large shelves up and I will organize this week.

I caught Bird and hosed and treated her wounds, she is coming along well other then the odd swelling on the front right, fingers crossed it will go back down.
At 7 we headed in to eat some wings and have a cold beer. Forgot to share Shaina's makeup application routine, cracks me up ;)
Britt also sent me this picture she took while swathing of her co-pilot
we were clouded over last night and could not see the blood moon but here is a good picture taken by
Kim Taylor photography.
