Believe it or not . . . we are taking it a bit easy today. I don’t know about Dennis, but I won’t be signing up for any ditch digging anytime soon. The will is on hand, the want is on hand and leave it to the body to bring you up short the day after.
Thursday of this week we were able to do a bang up job of sanding Michael’s Moose. I suppose we should find a name for him. This morning Overson Lumber sold me a container of the Thompson Water Seal product. By the time I got home Dennis had the “Moose on the Trailer” at the far east patio ready for the Moose to get his first coat of niceness. The Cedar did not disappoint. Beautiful. Lots of areas that needed to be coated, driving home all that Michael had done to get everything just right. Twenty four hours is recommended in between coats of the water seal. Back into the potting shed until tomorrow.
Dennis continued to monitor our area of lawn that is getting a boost via a portable sump pump to get the water out to the curb. Ideally the water from the sump pump in our basement would travel underground to the area in the lawn for it to be absorbed into the soil in that area. With all the rain that water just made a nice pond. I think he is gaining.
I have my sewing machine tore apart to give it a good cleaning and oiling. I was just about to take this last sewing project out from under the needle when the display screen began going though the tutorial of the cleaning and oiling. I am saving that project for after supper . . . or maybe tomorrow. I an assure you not one more stitch will be taken until the machine gives it the go-ahead. I just love technology.
