I’ve discovered a new love. Staining. That’s right, folks, staining. I pretty much loathe painting but it was 70 degrees yesterday and I was mulling a new book over in my head and it struck me as pretty much the perfect time to stain/waterseal my deck.
It was so therapeutic and mindlessly gratifying. Far more forgiving than paint. I just stained away while my little brain wheels were turning. It’s going to be another warm day with no rain and I’ve got lots of un-stained deck remaining. Guess you know what I’ll be doing. 


Hey, I’ve got a deck if you need more therapy.

Don’t you just love being mindless? That’s the way I feel when I cut grass, hang laundry, iron. Sometimes my brain just needs a rest!
