<\/a>Saturday, for the first time in years, I got the bug to paint a couple of tables that I’ve wanted to do for a few years.\u00a0 So I sat outside in the beautiful early morning and spent a few hours sanding two tables and painting them white.\u00a0 They are wood tables and I like the furniture in the house to be white. I pick up little rolling tables whenever I see them and have fun sanding and painting them. Plus it gives me some good hours of exercise for the paws to counteract all the keyboard time \ud83d\ude42 Here’s the larger table halfway through sanding.<\/p>\nAs I relaxed Saturday evening, I noticed my old wooden bookcase in the corner.\u00a0 I decided to pull it out and paint it white also.\u00a0 Had it not been 3:00am when I noticed it, I would have taken it outside to paint it on the spot.\u00a0 But of course the humidity and the dewfall would keep it from drying, so I waited until daybreak.\u00a0 I woke up thinking about it and excited to get into it.<\/p>\n It felt good to sit in the shade on the beautiful weekend in my own driveway and work on a project.\u00a0 The neighbor was having a garage sale, so there were many cars on the street, and many turning around in the grass.\u00a0 We all had our windows open, and I could hear a few radios playing in the distance, and the boom boom boom of a rap song in a passing low rider.\u00a0 It felt very old school and very neighborly.\u00a0 I pondered that the sanding down was like uncluttering and space clearing for the wood; purging the old energy.\u00a0 The painting was like setting the intention and the sealing was like the expectation and belief that would let it last for the long haul.<\/p>\n And although redoing the furniture was technically “work,” I felt like I’d taken the weekend off.\u00a0 Painting the tables helped me add to the newness of the place, the uncluttered-ness, just as I had done when discarding 70 pounds of newsprint.\u00a0 There’s always that feeling of newness and possibilities when I do any kind of space clearing, especially at full moon, such as Sunday morning’s Harvest moon.<\/p>\n Now, when Monday morning comes, I will be ready bright and early to compile the documents for my tax chick, and the job will go much easier due to the new space I’ve created for it.\u00a0 And yes, I did miss the downtown Melbourne art festival, and the air show and even church, but I had so much fun and was so psyched about doing my project that it was all I wanted to do.<\/p>\n I love when that happens, out of the blue, something new grabs my attention and motivates me and delights me.\u00a0 That means I’ve released my resistance enough to allow the pure positive life force energy to flow unimpeded through me.\u00a0 I means I’ve unkinked my hose long enough to allow the free flow to me of good things that have been waiting for me in my vibrational escrow.<\/p>\n I can hardly wait to see what all that might be.<\/p>\n I’m not even going to check my lottery tickets until later this week, so I can bask in the possibilities of – what if?\u00a0 What if?<\/p>\n Hmmmm, what if?<\/p>\n LISTEN FREE<\/span>: Out of Body Experience<\/a> ,\u00b8\u00b8,\u00f8\u00a4\u00ba\u00b0`\u00b0\u00ba\u00a4 :\u00a6:- Visit<\/span> <\/span>www.horizonsmagazine.com<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/a>I was surprised how quickly the deep finish came off with hand sanding.\u00a0 I primed and painted the two tables and put them out on the driveway to dry in the sun before sealing.\u00a0 Here are the two tables after being painted.\u00a0 I’m hoping YinYang will stay off them until they’re dry.<\/p>\n<\/a>I didn’t think to take a pic of the bookcase beforehand, but it was raw wood that had been sanded smooth and lightly sealed.\u00a0 It took very little sanding to take it to raw wood, then I cleaned it up to dry before painting.\u00a0 Here it is afterward.\u00a0 It also has small sliding doors on the bottom shelf, which makes it a cabinet.\u00a0 I painted them also, but I don’t use them.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
