When we awoke this morning it was already 54F (which is AMAZING for this time of year) with some sun poking from behind the clouds. After getting dressed and eating some pancakes, we took apart our desk and moved the desk tops and support beams to the garage for painting and varnishing.
I am somewhat regretting not simply painting the desktop and being done with it in a day, instead of 2-3 the varnishing will take.
It’s done, moving on.
I had just finished the third and final desk top with coat 1 of 2 of the varnish with I felt the first rain drop, so I had time to move everything into the garage and arrange to it would dry properly. I was able to finish the first coat on all the sides of the support beams, but will need to give a second coat to the facing wood but that will have to wait until Sunday, it has dropped 15 or so degrees which makes it too cold to paint in.
Tonight we head to Seattle for a night out with our friends and we are going to go see another friend who just arrived into town perform her burlesque show which is always super amazing and fun to watch.
Funny how a desk/table top can make someplace feel like a home… Now Ackbar feel’s somewhat lonely and cold as I listen to the rain, but at the same time comforting and familiar.
And now Drew has realized Pauline has left so I get to hear his “mommy meows” over and over…
Things that make you smile.
