Isa's Homestead Happenings and Hangout

he's already done some sanding in between coats and didn't warn me.
It is what it is.

Hubby does that too, the sanding in between coats. My house is already dusty enough, with the woodburner and George, that if he sanded the livingroom and didn't cover things, I'd have to throat punch him

He doesn't mean to be. He probably assumed I wouldn't want to bother covering anything.

Covering is easier than cleaning. But hey, at least it's getting done!

Yes, and there will be no complaints from me. I'm super happy it's getting worked on.

And that doesn't include the bacon! Today I'm going to start the wet cure process.

My husband left the hides, heads, and legs on a tarp off the porch while we cut it all up and the neighbors dog stole one of the heads! Just one probably weighed a good 20 lbs.

Niiiiice!!!
