The sugar beet field near our house was harvested last week and they knocked over a bunch of neighboring corn stalks in the process.
I realize that I live oh, maybe 20 minutes from the American border and I should know this.But I don’t.. Well, in case you’re from a country that doesn’t have boxing day, here’s what it is.. Every December 26th is boxing day.
The idea is that you box up all your leftover holiday food and give it to the needy.It’s a nice idea, but what it’s actually turned into is a big free-for-all shopping extravaganza with sales and fist fights and the whole nine yards.People basically go out and buy everything they feel like they should have gotten for Christmas but didn’t..
I don’t actually shop on boxing day cause it’s scary, but I did invent my own sad consumerist boxing day holiday.It’s called Birthday Boxing day.
So every year after my birthday if I’m disappointed, I get to go buy myself presents and not feel guilty.
Only now there’s more.It’s hard to tell in this photo but I brought the white paint up the wall a bit.
OK, it’s exactly 42 inches.Several sources suggested you bring wainscoting up the wall 32-36 inches, but ours will go up 42, cause I just think it looks better.. You can see I have a lot of work to do with the white paint still.
It’s supposed to rain all day tomorrow, so that should make for a good painting day.Those railings take forever!.
