3rd October 2018
I continued work on the large dresser, fitting the central section that slid in like a dream. Usually everything fits perfectly as a dry run, but as soon as I glue it all together, and try to fit it, I find that it has grown a millimetre.
Kelli took Greer to take her driving test (which she passed) then had to wait at the Secretary of State to get her licence. This gave me plenty of time to work of my projects.
We heard earlier that we had sold the kitchen island that we delivered last Thursday, a great result for October. That, of course started the panic to find replacements. The dresser would not be finished until the weekend, so another visit to both Goodwills was necessary. This came up zilch, except for a mobile trolley that could be painted. However it never stops there. No matter how disciplined I try to be she will always find the weirdest crap, usually it sells and sometimes not, but we never leave that place empty handed.
It had been really hot all day, way up in the eighties, so the sweat was dipping in pools. The humidity brings out the mozzies and the stink bugs that fly around like brown drones. The evening was disturbed by Kelli shrieking from the bathroom as she discovered one on her back.
The evening ended with a bowl of fruit pieces and a glass of sparkling wine, perfect.
