Sunday and finish the shed

D takes me out for a good long walk. Weather is overcast with some patches of blue sky. Nothing of great interest today, the hedgerow is providing some food for the birds.

Finishing of the shed today, glazing the windows and fitting the doors. The doors are a tight fit, but the bosses agree to leave to settle in before planing any wood off. Windows done although the boss (he) is not to impressed by the design which consists of a plastic cill on which the "glass" rest, leaving a lot of movement which could be a problem with rattling in the wind. Boss(she) is sweeping the floor and collecting all the odd screws together, I help by nudging the box and they spill out. I was only trying to help.

They are off now to finish undercoating over at Nan's. I will stay at home and look after the tribe. Bosses back now and talking about how much more work it was to prep the bay window which is oak and how the paint will not "stick" for more than a few years. Some rot in the door frame has to be cut out and the wood replaced. Well looks as if they will be busy next weekend again.Oh and Nan's lawn was cut edged and an azalea planted.

Time for dinner now and boss(he) is defragmenting him computer and sorting out what to do now his car is back on the front. He wanted the space to change the suspension on the old car which has done 165,000 miles and still going. Boss(he) says the suspension is "tired" and needs changing before it is given to one of the tribe to have as their first run about.

Time to settle down to relax after a busy day. See you tomorrow and may it bring you and yours new hope and inspiration.
