A painting I will go, a painting I will go......


I haven't been blogging much lately because I've been pretty busy painting. I have already re-stained the front and back decks redwood. About 1/6 of the fence is done, and I have also completed the window trims and doors on the main level of the house a beautiful redwood. (No, I do not have any doors on the second floor, but there are 3 windows, 2 with shutters). The scary part is the fact that I am terrified of heights for the second floor painting. Aisling suggests I hire somebody, but I insist on taking on my fear straight-on! (Just don't be surprised if I don't stay inside the lines). As long as I don't fall?!

Our van has a nice new hitch and elctric brakes for our trailer which we neglected to pick-up this past Saturday due to a golf game I HAD to attend for my friends' bachelor party. (After my score - 103 - I should have painted instead.....but it was sort of fun). We will be picking it up this week-end. It will also be a good investment for the dogs, cause they can now come with us on our holidays instead of trying to find dog-sitters. (They can also be in the trailer when we have dog-fearing company, or if we need a place to put them if Aisling and I are busy with certain activities........never mind).

Mom and Dad G, or grandma and grandpa to the kids, will be here for a few days on the 22nd. Should be a nice visit for them as they were last here in March (I think) and the boys (Keegan and Josh) are walking freely and with ease. Connolly is a book fiend....loves to read. ANd he knows how to mimmick a tiger and elephant, sound effects included.

Anyway, work calls.................later blogger gurus.........
