8:41AM and Done for the Day.....

I got out of bed at 4:00AM. this morning.  By five, I was outside re potting plants on the patio.  By seven I was back to work on the green house.

I got the other side of the roof shingled.  You will have to take my word for it.

At that point, I started slowing down.  So I sat down...  Big mistake.
I did put a finishing touch on the front window openings.

They now have fancy brass iron work in the top corners.  I thought about painting them black for wrought iron, but decided that I liked the brass.

They are corner findings that I got from Montage Supply on Etsy

I like this shop.  It has jewelry findings that I use for both jewelry making and miniatures.  Good service too.

These brass corners are 10 for 2.99.  I still have 4 to use somewhere else.  They would be pretty on the front of a notebook too.

About the time I got them glued on, Tessie showed up.  Did you know that mini witches can't catch real people bugs.  She announced, "I am as healthy as a very large horse and intend to stay that way!.....Now go away and let me see if I am going to like my new greenhouse....Did you have to be so literal?  Come on!...A green, greenhouse?....I think that the cold is messing up your mind!"  She was still chattering away as I left the general area.

That was when I decided that I had worked long enough.  I tuned her out and left altogether.....Closing(and locking) the door behind me.  Let's see how she gets out of this one....I am going to go take another nap...

See you tomorrow.
