Swim Day

DateThursday, September 5, 2019 at 6:21PM

We had a swim day. Will it be the last one before closing? I am not sure but boy did we enjoy it.

Here is the gallery.

Tried to get Hugo in as he so enjoys it but I guess he wants Helen in the pool too. Those that wanted to swim, did and those that didn't watched. Everyone had a good time.

Nathan says he is going to paint the rooms and he says he is starting tomorrow. Ceilings and walls have to be painted. I guess my doing the bench motivated him. I was waiting for it to be me. LOL I am rather spent but I keep plowing on.

I did comb out everyone before the swim and well those that swam look a mess. I need to move the bench back in and clean up the front. I so want a break. Tomorrow it can be cool as I have a full day of grooming. 

I am debating on sanding and painting the unit in the kitchen. I would like to do a deep grey and black top. This one may be more work than the bench though. We shall see. I am exploring Fusion Mineral paint. 

Dogs ran and ran today. they are all tuckered out. Funny how that works.

I was so hoping that Meadow would get a chance to enjoy the pool when she visits next week, but alas it is likely not to be!

I hate painting ceilings ... everything else, no issues as I have lots of patience for things like that. My girlfriend swears by mineral paint and has painted quite a few items including dressers, kitchen hutches, etc. I’ve been surprised at how durable it is.

Yes, I am told it is a one coat and really durable. if I can get that kitchen piece done, I will be relaxed. Nathan mentioned staining kitchen cabinets and I looked at him as if looks could kill.
