A response in avoidance of the Daily Post’s Writing Prompt https://dailypost.wordpress.com/dp_prompt/the-sincerest-form-of-flattery/

No, it didn’t feel busy or that I got a lot done, but I guess I did do a few things yesterday.  Or, maybe I should say that a few things were done around the house today and I did some of them.  Well, one of them.  And a walk.

Here is the walk which I went on after saying good morning to the painting crew busily scraping away at the north side of the house.

Coming down the path to the ocean.

Which way…which way?

Ok.  East it is.

Not sure why this bench was taped off with Caution tape.

Stairs going down to the beach.  I chose NOT to go down them.  Too lazy to want to come back up…

Another bench, but this one seemed ok to sit on.  I chose not to sit.  This time.

Random scenery

More stairs not to go down.

I walked to Clover point.  It’s nice there.

More stairs…

Then, after lunch, I primed that damn room – the one thing I actually did around the house yesterday.  I have now discovered that I think all will be well with one more light sand in spots and a second coat of primer.  Phew!  So, a second coat will go on tomorrow, and the first coat of actual colour on Friday sometime.  No painting of spare room shall happen today, as I must go to lunch and a play with mom.  But tomorrow.

After recovering from 3 hours of priming, I took a walk around the house and yard.  I have to take pictures of the house work in progress as part of the Heritage Grant requirements, so here are a couple of shots of what’s going on out there.

Some of the scraping…north side of the house.

Scaffold city set up on the south side of the house, presumably for today’s scraping extravaganza.

And, finally, some of the blooms in the tranquil backyard…
