A Day Full Of Chores

Labor Day for us was a day full of labor for sure. After coffee we hit the ground running with a list of projects to get done.
We have an old park bench we have been restoring. Lots of sanding, tightening , priming and painting.
Sue put on coat number two on the metal legs and sides.

The sides are green and the wood slats will be brown.
The tomatoes in the garden are producing. The plants look terrible, but the fruit is delicious.


Sue was very busy cleaning the windows...inside and out..She is not afraid of anything. Some of our windows are up pretty high, but she tackled the project with gusto. I held the ladder in between working on my own list of projects.
Here is Sue working on the windows in the screen porch.

Some of the windows were accessible with a ten foot step ladder....much safer than some of the windows that needed the extension ladder.

We installed nine new steel doors five years ago. They were primed, but never painted. That has been interesting. Two more of them are almost finished. I had grown fond of the "prime" color. Oh well.
That is all for now my friends. Tune in again soon for another edition of "Now What Are They Doing?"
