We got up this morning and went to the Elders Quorum breakfast where we enjoyed visiting with members of the ward. It was at the Whetmans home. The boys had fun playing in the yard and Natty enjoyed hanging out with Mack. This was the annual breakfast that we started a few years back when I served with Ben Fawson in the Presidency. The new Presidency did a great job with it. Nice to see that continue.
It was a good morning for a bike ride so that is how we decided to travel to the breakfast. Other than a few angry outbursts from Andy all went perfectly well. Andy finished strong and did a good job after being a little frustrated with an uphill start.
We really had nothing else on the schedule today. We had talked about going hiking but a storm had rolled in and by the time we got home from the breakfast the rain was upon us. We hung out at home for the most part. We played a few games, played with the micro-chargers and a few other things. I also took the opportunity to play around with some furniture that I am refinishing. I've got the dining room table we bought when we moved to Florida and I have this old Secretary that we bought from a lady here in Cedar. I am refinishing the top of the table and will try to sell the set. It is too big for this house and we might as well see if we can make a little money.
The Secretary, that is a mess. The lady we bought it from painted it and lets just say... why? The paint is on there very thick. It is not smooth, it is just thick and it is my opinion that when you are going to refinish and antique and you want to Chabbi Chic it, do very thin coats. It will take a few coats to get it done but it will look so much better. That is all I really have to say about that right now.
Anyhow, fun times on the home front.
