Cold and damp again, mid 40s to start.\u00a0 Overcast continuing today.\u00a0\u00a0 Maybe some rain in the forecast.\u00a0\u00a0 I hope not, but I know better than to plan.<\/p>\n
It got to be a very nice day in Houston.\u00a0 I enjoyed working outdoors on my ghost pirate ship.\u00a0\u00a0 I’m about 75% done.\u00a0\u00a0 I’ll be tweaking it right up until sunset on the 31st, but I’ve got the bones mostly in place and I’ll have the structure there by the end of the day today.\u00a0 It’s shaping up nicely.<\/p>\n
I also managed to find a dress for D1, who is having some sort of period dinner at school and requires a dress to match.\u00a0 It will need a bustle, and some sleeves (or a blouse underneath), but the main part of the outfit is here.\u00a0 Wish I\u00a0 was doing as well on the ‘pirate queen’ costume for D2.\u00a0 Still lacking the coat and hat, critical elements.\u00a0 She has a backup plan to recycle last year’s costume if we can’t pull it\u00a0 off.\u00a0 It’s always good to have backups.\u00a0 I got a couple of other decor items out and set up, and fixed up if needed.\u00a0\u00a0 Clear FlexSeal does indeed work to help seal up an inflatable that isn’t holding air as well as it should.<\/p>\n
Back still isn’t right, but I’m working around it.\u00a0 Gotta keep going.<\/p>\n
Late night rain might have put a damper on today’s plan, I guess we’ll see as we go. Rain started around 11pm.\u00a0 Don’t know when it finished.<\/p>\n
I have to stretch to call yesterday and today “prepping” but\u00a0 Life is more than prepping.\u00a0\u00a0 Sometimes you gotta live it.<\/p>\n
Stack something.<\/p>\n
