What are we doing today?

Painting window frames, AGAIN!

Well actually we have finished all the painting we are doing for today. Five windows now have undercoat and 1 layer of top coat. There are still 2 windows left - one has been scraped and just needs sanding and painting; the other we haven't done anything to yet. Plus we have yet to do anything with the windows+doors that cover the whole wall next to the deck! (I'm trying to convince Peter to replace the lot with bi-folds now - which is what we ultimately want to do there - instead of spending hours + money preping and painting it, just to replace later anyway.)

We are now pulling apart and de-nailing a stack of free pallets we got from Mitre 10, so we can use the wood to make some raised garden beds; a chook house; and try selling some as fire wood on Trade-me (the planks that snap/break in the process of us taking them apart).
