Day 2166 Work break.

19th July 2023

It was time to get some work done, all this fine weather is distracting us from selling furniture.

But first let’s take a bike ride, we been to see if there are any eggs available down the road.

So that where we went, and no, there were none, I did suggest going round the back where the chickens are and plucking them out, but Kelli didn’t like that idea. We finished our ride, and pulled out the furniture pieces that we wanted to get primed.

I had repair work to do, a lot, I had a top to strip, but first, let’s have some lunch.

I finished off the left overs washed down with a cup of hot tea. Kelli cannot understand how I can drink something hot when the weather is so hot, my answer is alway air conditioning. It is so chilly inside I have a tea to warm me up.

The cold tea they drink, and think it is “real” tea is misguided, and vile, there is nothing like hot tea to make the day complete.

Next there were plants to place in the garden and a treatment to spay on the lawn.

I removed the top from the tall dresser we had collected from Zeeland, the screws were difficult to turn, I had to work really hard to release. Once removed I set about stripping.

Now it was pool time. So I left everything and we both floated in the water. Once we’re were crinkled it was time to get out, we had furniture to work on. I needed something to eat, I fancied a banana, it was delicious.

Now it was back to work.
