one of our recent projects was in the bathroom…

we had some mould around the tub and the silicone along the sliding doors had given up the ghost so we had water leaking out during showers…

to start the process, the three doors were lifted out… then, the old grout was removed… next, the silicone was put all the way around the tub…

putting the doors back on while the silicone was still wet was a bit of a problem, but we got it done😊…

the silicone has to cure before the final removal of the excess takes place…

that should happen soon and then that project will be complete😊

this morning I voted in the advance poll at Polo Park… they are really strict about not allowing photos to be taken, and instead of stickers, had a banner you could use… maybe it saves money 🤪…

as a reward we got pretzels… mine were mini sesame ones… and I found them easier to eat;-)…

my favourite is the garlic and salt, but I was heading to The Leaf to volunteer and didn’t want to breathe garlic on the visitors, lol…

and as a special treat we came across three deer…

what a lovely bonus…

the lawn was mowed one last time on Sunday…

whatever leaves are left in the front yard will stay there for all the little creatures, although there aren’t very many leaves…

the garden is a different story… currently it is difficult to see the pond as the net is nearly completely covered with leaves… the elm tree next door still has a few leaves to fall so we will likely wait for them to come down before removing the net and putting the leaves in the flowerbed closest to it…

at that point we will probably bring the fish into their winter condo…

today I went for a haircut at Top End Studio Inc…

I was very happy to be going, as my hair was getting a little unmanageable, lol…

we had been to IKEA and I was a little worried about getting there on time…

of course we made it…

and I have great hair again;-)…

I’ve been thinking of the great meals we had on the train… the first morning we didn’t know where the dining car was and made the best of what we found in another car,,,

then we discovered where the dining car was, and had excellent meals from then on, lol… at each meal you got to choose between three options…

and at each meal we ended up sitting with people who we hadn’t met before…
