more projects & more rain ;)

I was awake at 6 as Sheldon was off to work, checked for any sales emails and did some posts then managed to fall back asleep for half hour. After 8 I went out and put another coat on the dresser top and legs then back in to do computer work. Once Papa was up after 9, I made fresh ground coffee and Grama joined us for breakfast. Britt even came up around 10 after her super long work day yesterday to visit with them. The sunny skies turned dark and thunder rolled in with rain falling at 10. It was only about half hour but welcome.

Grama and Papa headed home at 11, I waxed the dresser top and hardware and had Britt help me haul it inside. The hardware got put back on the drawers and after hauling them in I put it together to stage once dry.

check out this label and neat hardware

Back in the garage I started the chair side table. I chose a light grey for it and plan to finish the round coffee table I picked up to match. Brief rain at 1 came down cancelling Shaina's afternoon shift, she may still come stay the night as works tomorrow but will see.

Sheldon was dropped off early around 3. He had a nap after checking rain gauge showing 1 1/2/10ths. Amanda text that town had rain and hail and sure enough it arrived here about 15 minutes later. The clouds unloaded 6/10ths in not very long leaving puddles everywhere!!

Then the sun popped out and the rest of the night was a beauty. Britt who had a very lazy lay in bed with Netflix kind of day did manage to unload the dishwasher before she headed off to hot tub with Amber after 8. Sheldon watched football and internet things between nods, he did take a drive down the road and pegged off one gopher and did a weed check.

I worked on the blog and my staging pics while it rained and after getting the head gal to claim it was her new favorite way to stage by the last picture I was set!

#1 - accessories not really in style with mid century modern

#2 - simple flowers pretty but not enough umph

#3 - they say is the money shot, magazine worthy ;) crazy how accessories can change the look

while sorting photos I see I missed some from our plant pick up day on the 25th, hoped to plant them tomorrow but they say perhaps rain again

While watching "The Good Wife" I also finished up the MCM dresser blog post too.
