Day 1027 Gardener’s world?

Pete and Kelli’s social distance day 77

2nd June 2020

I got on with sanding another table leg. All the apron parts are complete with just one leg to go.

To make life a little more interesting I re-assembled the large dresser. I had to make a few new parts, and to my amazements everything fitted as it should, even all the drawers, now it’s down to Kelli to transform it.

The most significant part of the day was the complete and utter butchery of the lilac. It had been left for many years and needed some tender loving care. I had watched a YouTube video last night, so armed with my loppers, and a saw I commenced the bloodbath.

Kelli kept making alarming sounds as the branches fell away, I kept repeating “ it will be fine, it will grow back” with my fingers tightly crossed behind my back.

I am a practical person, I love making things, and especially working with wood. I appreciate good design, music and food.
