Another bison road trip for S

There appears to be a crack in the cold snap we experienced, as the temperature is  -17 degrees Celsius when we woke up after 7 a.m. Despite the sunshine, a wind persisted. While S prepared to embark on his long road trip to collect bison, I made the coffees and fed our indoor pets. Before leaving, he indulged in a refreshing shower and a hearty breakfast. S hit the road by 9 a.m. He is off to Kindersley, back to Oyen then to Medicine Hat to stay the night.


Renn enjoys this form of picking up quite allot it seems :)

I’ve been working on updating more affiliate links in tutorials and doing some marketing. I’ve sold all the furniture pieces except for the green half moon table. I have a lot of home decor, but most of it is listed on Etsy. I need to finish some pieces, so I’ll get back to the ones I’m currently working on.

B and Cooper were put to bed at 11, and the temperature was now -14 degrees Celsius. It’s still extremely cold, but it’s much warmer than it was in the past five days. I was in the garage, filling the fold-down table leg edges with wood filler. Then, I mixed up some warm white milk paint.

I clear coated the coffee table top and while it dried I painted the little table.

After a quick bite to eat, I wrote a Hometalk post for the grey painted tall dresser. Then, I returned to the table and applied another coat of milk paint. I enjoyed the sunshine lying in bed, practicing Spanish with a latte. Afterward, I went back out to the garage to feed Harley and applied a second coat of clear coat to the table after a light sanding and wiping. The temperature was now to a high of -10 degrees Celsius. While it normally would be considered cold, I imagine the horses are quite comfortable after that sub zero deep freeze of late.

I finished the last cabbage roll, gave Harley a pedicure then took a relaxing soak in the tub filled with pretty blue water while listening to a podcast. Afterward, I changed the sheets on the bed and spent the evening catching up on more episodes of the Morning Show. S enjoyed visiting with his Dad after picking up all the bison and his Mom once back at their place to spend the night.
