DOORS

So, we're at the start of another new day. I think I'm going to start on the doors. Bedroom doors and closet doors. I'll start with the ones that have just been sitting in the wash room for the past 10 years. They need to be sanded down- some have extra texture on them, some have the paint flaking off.. Kent was going to texture them all.. I really don't like textured doors, so I've got to sand them down and start from scratch. I tried to sand one of them earlier this week and ended up breaking my sander because the texture was too thick, and there were too many layers of old paint to get through. So, I borrowed Kent's sander and his industrial strength sandpaper and will start working on it today after I go pick up two of my nieces for a sleep over at Grandma's this weekend. (there will be 6 girls in all staying over.. my 2nd oldest brother Steven's (who died last year) daughter couldn't make it over for Christmas day (she's living with her Uncle & Aunt on her mom's side who are fighting for custody- with our support- it's a long story..) so she's getting to come for the weekend. She wanted to also spend time with her girl cousins and somehow it turned into a weekend sleepover for everyone. The rest of her wish list was to go to "Grandma & Grandpa's favorite Restaurant"- which is Home Town Buffet, which cracks me up because that is like the old folks gathering place.. my parents are "regulars" there.. they know the manager & waitresses by name- and vice versa. They even know the other "regulars". Her other wish was to go to the park that they always took her to when she was younger. So, Saturday is all planned out. The weekend is going to be filled with giggleing girls for Grandma and sanding doors for me.
