I got all the rusted nuts and bolts off the bench I am refinishing. I decided to paint the metal frame white, that is what is was, and I stained the wood and now am coating it with urethane. Getting the bolts off was the hardest part. I can't wait until it's done, why does paint have to dry so slow?
Thanks Birdie and Migs. I have worked so hard on this bench it is nice to share my success with friends. I would not have been able to do it without my husbands help, it's nice to have the guys around.miggles said:Hooray Keep!!! I'm sure it will look just gorgeous when it's finished!
I did a mosaic and my dad made a coffee table out of it. Dads come in handy sometimes.Anyway, he just painted the legs with water-base white paint. I hate oil-based paints. Those are the slow dryers.

I pray you find fulfullment in your new job Prom, I am happy for you, I know you have a lot to give and will make a difference in the lives of others. I pray you find ways to teach the love of God to his little ones.MotherOfPromise said:I started a new job today, teaching 3 and 4 yr olds at a Montesorri school. It was pretty wild. The teacher-director was in and out of the room all day, trying to train me to their schedule, taking care of her infant baby girl, and doing all sorts of other things. The baby girl has heart problems and will have to have surgery soon.
Nothing much is on paper as far as instructions for me. The materials are disorganized and there is no regular curriculum to teach from. The director is pretty much giving me freedom to teach as I want as long as I give instruction on the necessary things. I can see it is going to be a real challenge. There is way too much yelling at kids to make them behave and not nearly enough encouragement and praise. To make it even more difficult, the rooms are open with lots of other workers walking through from time to time feeling free to scold the kids. I am anxious to have complete control of the class so I can get some order and smiles in that room.
I am free to read Bible stories and we say prayers. I have to keep that pretty much generic as far as religion goes so as not to offend any parents. I have been spoiled spending so many years in Christian work and being free to tell others about salvation through Christ.
I would love it if you would pray for me. I don't want to pick up any bad habits from the others. I want to be kind, but not taken advantage of by undisciplined children. I want to be orderly in a disorganized place. I want to be a light of Christ's love. I want to be able to teach Bible stories in an acceptable way, that will also have meaning.
Thanks,
Prom

Hi scootermom, Maybe a nursing home would be best for a little while until the doctors can determine what is wrong. I will pray for you, your husband and your kids. I can only imagine the stress you are under right now but I know God is there with you. Blessings to you. Keepscootermom said:Hi ya'all.After a couple super stressful days, today was good. My 17-yr-old didn't yell at anyone. I asked a friend to make some calls for me, which she did. Friday, a nurse is coming out to determine if my hubby needs to be in a nursing home, at least for a bit. He broke a rib the last time he fell and reinjured his foot. I just feel he could get better care at a facility, but we'll see.
Congratulations, Prom, on the new job.
Miggles, still want a husband???? That gentleman was being very honest.
