That was a nasty storm last night and this morning the condensation was heavy on the walls and windows of the Castle. Cooking breakfast over the open flame really added to the water in the air. Well Ok it is time to buy a dehumidifier to make the interior decent again. 

So it was off to Walmart where we were able to get a small dehumidifier.




We got it back to the Castle and put it to work immediately. Within an hour it had the Castle comfortable again.  About an hour later we did not have any condensation on any surface the OFM checked on.

 Well while you are all worked up OFM, you might as well do the laundry also. To our surprise he got right to that task. He even carried the laundry to the laundry room in a light sprinkle and 35F temperature. WOW What a man!

By the time the laundry was finished and put away it was after 1300 so the Teams headed out for lunch and see if any pictures needed taking.  Nope they didn’t.

Back home the OFM decided to get to work on a new painting.  Water lilies are the subject. Several hours later the painting was called a total failure. The main trouble is he worked in colored pencil which is a medium he is a complete flop at using. We think the picture is a good subject.

Since tomorrow is another nasty day, the plan is to work on the same scene but to do it in watercolor pencil. We will see what happens.

OK lets see. 
Laundry done.  
Dehumidifier purchased and put to use. 
Warm comfortable home (Castle).
A painting that failed but was fun to attempt.

Yep it seems that it was a great day of trying to have tooooo much fun.
