Yet another fogged in morning but this time it burned off fairly quickly. The sun was out after our coffee and such. I headed to the garage to dark wax the dining table base and put another coat of stain oil on the top. S took H for a walk.
Harley load up in the car and we were off to town before 12:30. A lady was meeting me at the massage place to buy an item but turned out to be a no show. For the second time! ;( S waited for a bit after I went in for my 12:45 massage then he was off to fill car with petrol. He grabbed a few groceries then back to pick me up in the hour.
We grabbed an iced drink at Tim's on the way home. Now to get busy on more paint projects. I scrubbed up and vacuumed a new jewelry box. I then painted it plum. S went out for a hot tub then in to read a bit.
I started another project; a large monkey pod bowl I started years ago. The wood oils came thru the paint so I just had left it in a cupboard. I saw a great idea to decoupage the inside and I had the perfect new paper to try. Doing an inside of a round bowl with flat paper was a challenge and took allot more time then I thought.
S took H for a ride to the mail and finally received his retirement package info he has been waiting for since Jan 31. This consumed him for the next while. I eventually got the inside conformed and left to dry. Supper was next cooking up stuffed salmon and veggies. S did take a loop with the vacuum as it seems our shedding dog also now brings in mud with the melting temps. I had trimmed her toenails only to find dry dirt everywhere. While supper cooked I put another coat of paint on the jewelry chest.
Supper was delicious. After supper I started adding gold stencils to the jewelry chest. This was a challenge with the first product not working. Once I found the right one to use each area had to have the wee stencil washed and dried before moving on. The Flames were now playing so S was off to the big TV.
The edges of the bowl were now dry so I sanded off the excess. Back inside I caught up the blog. Then I wrote a quick Hometalk post for the mandala plant pot. Cleaning up photos was my next task. Then it was time to go finish Spare! In short order I was done it. I then moved on to the new library book. Another by Jay Shetty. After the Flames win and sports news S was up to read a bit too.
