July 16, 2004 - Friday
I started another painting project with
Harry this afternoon. This time it was priming Jeremy's bookshelf. Before
the summer started, I'd signed Harry up for only half days on Fridays in July
hoping that we'd go to the cabin at least a couple of times. We did that last
weekend, but today that half day meant a little one-on-one time and that always
pays dividends. The painting is a bit manic, but a little better than expected,
as long as Harry doesn't notice that I'm smoothing out where he's randomly
painted. His coverage is good, but the strokes would leave curious brushmarks.
After painting we went outside and Harry asked that I chop some of the firewood
in the driveway (from our trip to the cabin). I
did and he helped, really helped, carry it to the pile in the garage. It's
that one-on-one dividend.
