Day 1254 Winter scene

16th January 2021

Another sprinkling of snow greeted me as I prepared the dogs breakfast.

The roads were white and unblemished that was until a Prius wafted past disturbing its purity.

The dogs didn’t care, they just wanted food, no finesse, just “straight down the neck” as fast as they can. Dhama took her bowl for its usual scrape around the house, as I drank my orange juice staring out of the window onto the winter scene before me.

I had no fixed plans for a Saturday, Covid took care of that, so it was more about what I needed to finish in the garage so that Kelli could post.

We dragged the rustic piece into the living space to take pictures. It had changed a lot from the grim piece we collected, but that’s what we do.

I dismantled a small drawer that was part of the table with the enamel top. Each part had bowed, so part of the day was thinking of ways to straighten the pieces.

After soaking them in the sink for half an hour and then clamping into a reverse position, I left them to dry over night.
