It’s almost 11 am, and were are still 7.6 degrees below zero, only expecting a high of zero today, and a high of 5 above tomorrow. I hate being this cold. I got out my big Columbia parka to wear today; I don’t think it’s been out of the closet for at least a couple of years, maybe longer.
We are heading out for the third day of our four-day paint-a-thon at DS#3′s double bungalow. We are hoping to complete the painting on the one side by day’s end tomorrow, but we keep falling short of where I expected we would be for the day, and we didn’t get home last night until after 11 pm. The real workmen (as in “paid”) will be back Monday morning doing their sanding, varnishing, grouting, installing countertops and kitchen flooring. The work just goes on and on. But not for us. By tomorrow night, we’re done.
It could be worse — we could be working outside!
