so far both nights this week bernie's come home (late as usual poor guy) and helped me with the first raised bed in the garden.
i got one together now......weighs a ton.
i need to put the hardware cloth under it so no moles or critters decide to dig under.
we discovered last night that we ran out of the corner thingies...... so i have to get 4 more, and 8 L angles for the tops
i am pretty impressed!
i am more impressed that after a very hard day, bernie is coming home and doing that for me.
that i think is love, true deep and mature love. i know he's exhausted.
ok i took a bit of a break from that black and white drawing, and i may also today. my hands were hurting so bad, then my shoulder.
i have to get back to it so maybe tomorrow
meanwhile i canned those pullets.
started the sock for the spirit trail booth sample (btw, that sunna is amazing, however, if you all get it-please make a shawl or scarf or something that can be SEEN with it.......it's that amazing)
i also gave in to tempation (and another sale) and picked up some palettes for 3.00 each, these are for gouache, and some half and full empty water color pans, (that link shows a nice box from france and the white things lined up like farmhouse sinks are the half pans) i am thinking of trying to make a watercolor paint box/palette/storage thingie.......
they were quite cheap so it is doable i think
(i think?) then i can use the actual palettes for paint mixing instead of paint holding
this like everything else will change often i think
i checked my deck plants out yesterday and i have to thin the spinach.....sniff, all those pretty little spinach seedlings need to come out.... ( i dropped some seeds, and of course 6 times more then i what i dropped germinated) so the chickens, ducks, and budgies will all be getting a treat
oh and i may have located a drake or even a pair of silver muscovy if so, lilli gets a husband!!!! and we're going to need another pen
(you all knew THAT was coming right?)
oh and we didn't get the easter budgies down to the studio yet.....but soon
now who's going to join me in another cup of coffee?
Me! Well, it's my tea. First cup aka mug. But I have to leave in a few minutes for PT and a post office stop afterwards. And then work. Another week of this conference prep and then back to a more normal schedule.
