Paint projects on the go

The chinook winds continued to blow and be plus 4. As I worked on marketing and posts an even huger wind storm blew thru at 11 moving stuff on the deck. The temperature dropped to plus 1 and hovered.


snapped these updated pics


The antique table was painted a second coat of cream milk paint.


I painted the magazine rack another coat of turquoise then took it out to sand distress when dry. I was finishing that up when Brittany and Cooper popped out after 1:30.


We caught Roo and Switch and trimmed them up. B got to wear and use her new trimming gear from Dave. She is decked out to the 9's with chaps, knives, rasp with holder and nippers. When we let them go the rest were back at the bale so no next in line.


I headed inside to make lasagna and she was off to town but had to take the quad out before doing so in search of Mr Cooper who was out on his own coming from the south pasture when he finally returned. Lola had been here so not sure what he was off doing alone. I finished up the lasagna and got them in the oven.


B text around 4 there was a storm in town. It looked nice here (a bit of snow had briefly fallen but was short lived) but in a matter of minutes it rolled in. It did not last really long, about 20 minutes and was off but now it was starting to get dark, drats!

my view minutes later


After eating some lasagna I headed out to touch up sanding on the magazine rack, dusted it off and sprayed it with clear coat. The table had a 3rd coat of milk paint. The silverware chest was posted and had an interested party but she wants her tartan put inside. I suggested she find the chest and I can help her out.



The snow storm dropped the temperature to -3 and according to David Spence it will keep going down to -21 next Friday.. yikes! I started a new Netflix series called Virgin River, anyone else watch it?

Taking a break after a few episodes headed out to sand the antique table quick. Then back in my cozy bed with a movie on Crave called The Mustang. I only got 2/3 thru and had to shut out the lights and record my sleep time on my Fitbit ;)
