15th July 2020
Okay I had a little too much to drink, but it’s Wednesday and I think it’s a good day to get out and treat my wife to a meal. Every day she creates an amazing dish designed to keep me alive for another day,
It was cloudy all day as I worked in the garage with only the Lancaster bomber propellers to keep me cool.
I had several pieces that I needed to work on. One was the project piece that we picked up that I subsequently found to be a crock of crap.
Someone had taken the trouble to make a piece out of solid alder and make it totally out out of square. I had to fit the last shelf, and that is when I found the inaccuracy. My gut told be to break it apart and rebuild it, but that may cause a lot of damage, so I am in a dilemma, should I make some corrections to improve it or should I risk breaking it apart.
I decided to work on another piece where the top and drawer fronts needed to be stained.
Kelli had done the bulk of the work leaving me with the staining.
That was okay until I saw the swirling marks caused by the sander.
Now everything will have to be sanded back to remove the marks.
I went on to do something else, hoping that something would give me some fulfilment.
There was another top that was sanded, and a new cabinet that Kelli picked up this morning, all of which that needed something, but it was difficult to get focused on.
Which brought me back to my beer. It was lovely, and it was Stein night at New Holland.
It slipped down nicely, I could feel the effects after the first mouthful. Kelli was looking great in her summer dress, she had cut my hair that morning, so maybe that added to the effects.
She is very good at making he feel human again, and although she used dog cutting scissors she still made a pretty good job of it.
Not once did I have the urge to lick my own bottom or howl from the roof, however the evening is still young.
Another Lifetime to go
