All of the sudden, summer has arrived. Unfortunately it is supposed to leave us today with a few thunderstorms this afternoon. It has been in the 70s and 80s this week and sunny! The trees suddenly have leaves. The sandbox has been well-used. The girls have had more fun playing in the garden than anything else lately. They even wanted to do that instead of watching TV!
We also got a lot done. Yesterday we even cleaned off the roof and gutter. Naomi wore her flip flops, and wiped out when she walked on a slippery wet patch. Didn't get a chance to wash the car, but maybe the thunderstorms will do that for us. This week we will have to get all ready to go to Switzerland as we are leaving on Saturday!
I should be able to finish up both projects I am currently doing in the woodshop - the bedside tables and re-doing the cracked up coffee table before we leave. The drawers in the bedside table are going together better than I expected although the finger joint detail didn't turn out so well. The interesting bits are hidden by the drawer slides, but the mistakes are a bit obvious. Oh well. It is still pretty cool that I don't need handles - they open by pushing them in.
