more door

I did get most of the trim on last Monday, but then there was Stuff & I didn't get back to it until the end of the week, so here is where I started yesterday morning.

The hinges were in the way of putting the trim on the right side of the door, but I wanted it off anyway to work on it, so that wasn't a problem.



I measured & cut a piece to go along the bottom ...



... & traced a curve so that it would match the rest of the side trim.



Couple coats of paint.



While that was drying, I worked on the door. It had started to split a little, where water had gotten into the filling stuff, but I have gorilla glue & lots of clamps.



I figure enough coats of paint over that & water will never get into it again.

In the meantime, I got that last piece into place. Looks good!



Just had to fill in a couple gaps with caulk, & poof! It's a door frame.



Next up, painting the edges of the door & putting together the shutter for the front window!

asploring with a tomcat

mostly because he's the only one of the lot who'll happily follow along without buggering off somewhere & winding up across the street, YES, I'M TALKING TO YOU, LOIOSH

Me & my roommate Inoru went off walkies a day or two ago; I'd spotted a hrse skull I wanted to pick up, & they wanted to get out of the house for a bit, & we decided to let Tom come along too. He had quite a lot of fun, sniffed MANY things, & returned rather more dust-coloured than before.

He zoomed up a tree & then couldn't quite figure out how to get down. We helped by laughing really hard & taking pictures.

Spot the cat toes!



He got it figured out ...



... but it took him a while.



Yes, this is a grey tabby. Once he's had a good wash, anyway.
