On Saturday morning she got her large trash bag full of pine cones down from an upstairs bedroom. She did not remember there being so damn many pine cones.
While waiting for the wax to melt before she could start dipping pine cones our heroine grabbed an orbital sander and roughed up all the tongue and groove wood on the enclosed front porch. Then She sanded all the trim around the front door and using wood putty fixed all the screw holes from where the storm door used to be and where another dog had chewed the door trim.
After a hard day of work she got cleaned up and headed off to Beech Mountain to have dinner with some very good and dear friends. Any friend who tells you that you are beautiful when you're tired and feel very fat is a great friend!
The heroine's friend found these really cool stained glass corner pieces at a craft fair. The heroine is sure that another really good and dear friend, Michele, could make these as she makes spectacular stained glass creations.
At the same house the heroine saw these neat old windows that had been painted. Her hostess had one on each end of her front porch. What a great idea!
By late Sunday our heroine had finished wax dipping all the pine cones. These are not all of them, there are more in the master bedroom and in the upstairs guest room.
As if wax dipping all the pine cones was not enough our heroine then made a pumpkin pie for her beloved co-workers. She figures that if she keeps them happy they will not get angry with her for taking time off. Hey,,it might work.
By bedtime our heroine took the brace off her left hand to mark the end of six weeks of not using her "writing hand" for anything. Yee-Haw!
Now that our heroine is healed and has been given a green light from her surgeon who knows what she will do this coming weekend.
Stay tuned,,,same website,,in a few days.
