Tomorrow begins a long week of painting and finishing up the dinosaurs.
Today though, we were loading up the paints, brushes, trays, cups, and tarps
We were having to move the dinosaurs again, for the twentieth time.
We had to move them to get to the paint.
Once in the corner, a paint can fell over spilling almost an entire gallon onto the floor.
All over boxes of art projects to be done, my extra tile for the bathroom, and just plain everywhere.
Using two dustpans, I scooped up most of the paint and put it back into the bucket, sawdust and all.
We then used newsprint and a wet t-shirt to get most of the mess.
My skins not so lucky, I have dried paint all over my legs, hands, and arms.
I then chose the paints I wanted to use, and we loaded up the van.
The van also has the Velociraptor inside.
We then got the trailer from the side yard to pre-load the dinosaurs for morning.
Once we got the trailer, we started up with the triceratops.
I was fine going up, but coming down my Keen shoes slipped on the grating.
I went down of course.
In the process of falling, I put out my right hand and felt the blow into my upper arm and hand.
As I sat there praying, "Lord please don't make this bad!"
Chris yelled out "Loran! are you okay?"
I said, "I think so", he was still supporting the dinosaur on the trailer.
"How did you fall?"
The Keens have become slick and hardened on the bottom.
I may put them in the garbage tonight, so I can't get them back out.
They really are my favorite shoes, and I have several colors.
I was shaking my hand, wondering how I was going to paint with a broken finger.
The shoulder is squeaking too, so I think Ibuprofen will be my friend tonight.
Needless to say, an exciting evening.
Good thing I painted earlier today!
The finger, I'm typing with it as we speak.
I expect it will be jammed up tomorrow.
I pray it is not!
