thursday through saturday

1 He makes good progress on the camper and comes inside with a very satisfied look on his fat. One might say it's the "Cheshire cat" look.
2 The receipt says someone has purchased as Mars bar. I mention it to him and he says, "Where's the evidence?", laughs and now has a guilty look on his face.
3  There's already a couple of cords of wood leftover from last year so these two new cords of wood should get us through the next winter. It's in a giant pile ready for stacking but there's no time so it gets covered in a tarp.
4 A feast of Japanese food. Dinner combo for two. Sushi, sashimi, tempura, miso soup, sunumono soup, chicken teriyaki and some ice cream. mmmm so good
5 We work together on the camper and manage to get the worst part of it done. The gluing. We must be quite the sight in our matching respirators!
6 I've started sanding and chipping away at the old paint on a stained glass window. The glass pieces are shades of faded red and yellow. He did the major sanding for me because it's difficult to do as well as difficult on my hands. I'm thankful for his willingness to procrastinate his work for mine.
7 Kale chips made from kale from our greenhouse. There's enough made for him to take with him tomorrow on his trip if he can hold back long enough.
8 A little bit of craziness in the hot tub. Ah ha! Not us, the hummingbirds. The feeder is near one corner and the birds soon forget we are near and put on an amazing performance of acrobatics and speed.
9 He has to pack up but it's nice to see him leave it to the last minute and make the most of our time together.

Your past week sounds lovely! I enjoy your posts about your travels over on that side of the continent. The coast sounds as beautiful as I've imagined it.
