azure paint day

Awake before 8 and getting the day going with marketing and a cappuccino! Looks like a lovely day in store. Sunshine after our rains and no wind is indeed most welcome. And today is the start of diet break week!!!

However once I logged into my computer I found the email not working, after a 1 hour tech support with Microsoft they still could not fix it, grrr. I then moved on to half hour getting the girls new phones thru Bell but at least it was successful and much shorter.

I snapped a few pics of B's sofa table in the daylight.



I put clear wax and then black wax on the jewelry box. It is looking lovely. The noon news gave me a shock stating this is long w/e coming up WTH!! where did June go?


After a quick bite for lunch I went out to give Bird her gastro, water deck pots and put the soaker on front bed that missed most of the rain due to direction on the wind. I cleaned and sprayed the glass pieces for the jewelry box outside. In the garage I unclamped the now flattened chair edges, glued them and reclamped them.


I corresponded back and forth with a wall plank company to do a collaboration. I ended up choosing this style, what do you think? They will be used on the walls I stage furniture on.


The jewelry box now was able to have mirrors cleaned and photos snapped. Then I had to get it posted on Etsy .



A brief rain storm came down at 4 but did not last long.  I went to check and found 1/10th but it made it easier to pick a few weeds while I was out there.

Next it was on to the spice rack I scrubbed up the other day. It was painted 2 coats of my favorite fun azure.



Supper was followed by some yummy pumpkin cake Mom brought, two pieces actually since it is increased calorie week :) Seeing I had the azure out and it was nearly gone I scrubbed up a cute pepper mill and painted it too.



While it dried I did my workout, whew! Then out to feed the horses their probiotic and supplements. It looks like the probiotic is gone which is going to make this part of the day much easier as I wont have to get 2 horses out of the paddock and wrestle with Roo and her bucket trashing. It was a beautiful night! I decided I would spend more time weeding as on nights like this with golden sunshine, grazing horses, guarding dog and NO WIND or mosquitoes, I enjoy weeding.


I came in at 9 to whip up a protein smoothie which topped out my days 1725 calories! What a great day all around. I painted a second coat on the pepper grinder, it is so cute.  Time for a shower and couple more gardening episodes with the prince getting home just after 11.

have you tried this hack to keep asparagus from wilting?
