It’s not what you think.

Lawyer thinner to the rescue. (Fig 1.)

You know you talk to a parts counter, you check using Google, and you flip through a book but the colour suggested is just a tad too bright, and a little thin, and the touch up version is real thick and gloppy, so the attempts to hide the rust spots isn’t as successful as one might have hoped, but in the end it still looks better than when I started, and I have sparkle paint left at my disposal for other projects that require a bit of whimsy, so all good. The colour match for twelve year old paint isn’t perfect, but it’s the best I can do without painting the entire car, and that’s not in the cards for the GMC Terrain that’s nearing 170,000 Km, and limping along once more. If it can get to the end of the school year, and possible through summer, then that’s pretty great.

A visually striking sunset that didn’t really translate on camera. (Fig 2.)

A shame that, it was this lovely brief moment through all the trees into a side window that felt sort of at peace given the current state of the world. Unfortunately it didn’t really capture the depth, nor the grandeur in camera. Oh well. I experienced it, and just wanted to share. Something’s you just need to be present for I suppose.

It’s now Thursday of the short week. Heading into another weekend. I have a dog urine sample to collect for the vet’s office because they believe our pooch has contracted Lyme Disease, and they need to determine if he has fought it off, or if he is still living with it. Thing is the blood work only tests for antibodies, and can’t tell us if it’s a current or past infection. Hence more tests required. And the urine sample collection. Hope it’s not a messy affair. Fingers & paws crossed.

School ends in about a month. Not much time to do all the things! These next two weeks are going to fly by because everything is coming to a head with final classes, recitals, tournaments, proms, graduations, rehearsals, fairs, talent shows, spring dances, and whatnot. Heads will spin! Whoosh!
