Well, two coats down on the door and I plan to do the third (and final) tonight before I head off to bed. I should be able to flip the door and do the other side in the darker stain when I get home from work tomorrow. I’ll be going to the gym after work, so I’m hoping I’ll be able to get both coats done on that. It takes about 6 hours between coats instead of the 3-4 that the polyurethane does, so we’ll see. If I can get home and get to it by six it might very well happen.
I went to the baby shower this afternoon while Firefly slept, and when I got there I got a big hug from my friend and a gift! I was like “what are you doing? I’m the one who’s supposed to bring you a gift!” But she said she couldn’t resist and wanted to get us a “hooray!” present. I only peeked a little (I saw something green but that’s about it) and opened it with Firefly when I got home. It was a little bathtub warm cover thing that looks like a frog, and a super cute outfit set with two shirts–a blue short sleeved one with a monkey on it, and a blue and brown striped long sleeved one–and brown pants with monkeys on the feet. So cute!
This evening we went to Dee and Pia’s house. She sat and chatted with some folks, and I spent some time in the pool hanging out with a friend of ours. We were talking about cloth diapering, and she said that although she had fully intended to do it she never did, between her son being in the hospital for about a month after he was born and being pretty sick herself after. She still has a bunch of diapers and things that she got that were never used and offered to pass them on, which is awesome.
Um…I think that’s it for tonight. I’m going to go check on that door.
