The burst of cold air flooded the garage as the doors were opened.
I was the lucky one who went out first, because the large mid century style dresser was being collected today and there were last minute checks to do, although I didn’t know when it was being picked up.
I also continued on the Jackson Pollock, scraping another few millimetres at a time. This made a mockery of my “ this will be easy” remark.
It was going to be interesting because the buyer of the dresser being collected was also bringing a dresser that they wanted painting in the same black colour, simple.
Whilst we waited, we took the dogs for a walk, the sun was shining making it a pleasant one, but once it had gone, it was freezing.
The lake looked good, still and blue reflecting the sky, this is a great place to live, in the summer.
It was a longer walk than normal, Phoebe was sniffing at very regular intervals that was sometimes annoying.
Soon after we got back things started to happen.
A truck pulled into the driveway, up went the tailgate, there was the dresser we were going to transform.
The lady had bought a mid century piece from us before, although I didn’t recognise her until she spoke. She had a childish sound to her voice, making it very distinctive.
