misty day

At 8 when I awoke there was a gentle sound of rain.. it was not much but it was rain.. and this misty cool weather continued all day. Coffee in bed started the day.

I worked on organizing the new furniture finds in the garage and sorting my paint. I am perplexed as to the colors to paint the nest tables.. black, navy, grey or teal, cream, brown or brown, black, blue or green/blue, cream & brown?? such hard decisions..the dogs spent the drizzly day inside the garage.

Sheldon took a brief run out in the cool 4 degrees tossing the horses a bale, notching some hole then cutting the last floor mats for the standing stalls and rearranging. It did hit a high of 9. Back inside I helped him hang a shelf Papa made me in our toilet cubicle and he hit the couch. I put some of my trinkets out but need to find more.
 before and after
I had a customer contact me last night to paint her grandma's coffee and end table set in my southwestern style and today they dropped them off at 3. While here they looked at and bought the file cabinet. ;)



I finally decided on colors and started painting the largest of the nesting trio going with teal. Britt wanted to leave by 6:30 so I came in at 5 to start supper. Roasted veggies, a rice mix  and roasted fish were on the menu. She was picked up by Jason tight around 6:30 and was off to her big night.

I headed back to the garage to paint a 2nd coat of teal then start the other 2 with the pretty aurora color and a dark roast brown. Sheldon spent the day napping and watching hockey. Britt messaged once at the hotel that they got upgraded to a suite for her birthday, it had a hot tub in the middle of the room, too bad no one took suits!
