T Stands for Another Week Around the House

Time for T again which must mean it is Tuesday.

Hope everyone had a great week. Mine was busy but typical of these times of the virus, not exactly wildly adventurous.

I ended up doing a project last week I wasn't planning doing. My screen porch has a painted floor, and I decided to touch up the scratches in with some left over paint.  (I had painted the floor last spring.) Well for some reason, even though I both shook and stirred up the leftover paint, it dried much lighter than the floor. Hmm. I don't get why the floor had darkened so much, but I couldn't live with all the patches so I decided  to repaint the whole floor again. Luckily I had enough paint and all the rollers, etc., so I didn't have to go get any any supplies to do it.

So I moved the furniture over to one side and painted that, and then the next day I moved the furniture back to the opposite side and painted that. All I had left to do was run into the house and get my tiny brush to do the very edge of the floor that abuts some unpainted wood.

I think I should have brought Pete in with me because when I went back outside, who was in the screen porch and had walked right through the wet paint?

And who walked paint out onto the deck when he left? I rained that night and the wet deck really shows off his steps.

But I was able to finally finish setting my screen porch up.

 And I moved my "office" out there, along with my office mascots too.

Just behind the computer is my stay cold drink container with some ice tea in it. Tha's my drink for T this week.

I guess the days lecture/class was a little boring for the pups. I hope the kids weren't falling asleep as they zoomed in either.

And I made a journal so I can scrapbook some of my memories from my 35 years at my last teaching job.

I took the pages out of an old book that I liked the size of, and then created some signatures for the inner pages.

I painted the cover the school covers and added this sticker I found when I cleaned out my desk.

I did splurge and buy the gaffer tape on Amazon so it would match the colors I painted the covers.

I brought home a whole bunch of "items" when I cleaned out my room that I can use in my book. I'm going to start filling it in this week while my ideas are still fresh in my head.
But most exciting this week is that today, June 9th, I am now done. After 35 years at my job, I am moving on to new things.

Be sure to stop by Bleubeard and Elizabeth's blog and see what the T gang  has been up to. Or better yet, join us for T.

Thanks for visiting.
