Labor day

Today is labor day but not much labor was done to start. No creamer no coffee.. Kaylin was off just after 6 but the rest slept in. I did wipe down a single table, sanded the legs and added ultra grip to the super shiny laminate top and sides. I has to wait 12 hours now before painting.

Britt is keen to work with Roo today as she does not have tomorrow off. Shaina was up late morning and searched for rental places while I worked beside her on my old computer at the island on the blog and accounting. Britt and I ate a quick leftover lunch then ere off by 12:30. Shaina works at 1 so was not long after us. Roo started out naughty but once we got her in the arena she was keen to learn and had a great lesson session.

Once back in their paddock we were off and Britt surprised me with an offer to buy me a pumpkin spice latte at Starbucks!! Thanks B, Lexi and I waited in the car wile she ran in.

We were back  after 3:30. It is a beautiful day only at 23 and little wind. I hauled out and got to work on a dining table sanding it down but after about half an hour my sander was acting up and crapped out.. and I was not done ;( Britt did brush Lola (she had trimmed her toenails earlier with Shaina's help) before she started packing for her trip. Before 6 she was off to town for supper with friends. I had just a skiff of paint in a jar so used it up painting 3 mason jars.

I had started to cook the smaller spaghetti squash but with no one here for supper I went back out to work the the table. Oddly the sander still was not working but I tipped and moved it trying to get the last part done and after a bit it started to work.. but not for long but I do think I have most of the finish off.

B was back with a doggy bag and more travel goodies. Shaina was home from her work day around 8:30 and picked me up some creamer, thanks!  Kaylin was home around 9:30 just as I heard a horse neighing in the yard, yep Shaina had left the gate down so she went out and caught Hawk and put him in the paddock. Sheldon was home at his usual just before 11.
