2020 News in the Wymola Household

It's been a hell of a year and we've been lucky not to get the Covid-19, but it did bring a surprise for my health. If you want to follow my journey you can go to this page:

My Myelofibrosis Journey 

I had a busy busy month of painting in October, but when I got news of my new health problems, I shut down my etsy store for the month of November to figure out what my prognosis is and to take a break. This news was a shock. I've been healthy all my life, I rarely need to go to a Dr. 

I am getting the best care I could ever get and I am in good hands with MD Anderson and my Dr. is a world renowned Specialist for MF.  Thankfully David is doing ok and his radiation treatments were successful. We will take care of each other. 

We are keeping a positive attitude and looking forward to 2021!

We made a Farm Table

We like to work on projects like this
FARM TABLE

We LOVE to go to Estate Sales, Yard Sales.
Treasure hunting is what we Love.

I wanted a farm table. We had purchased a work table with a formica top, and a matching smaller one exactly the same. You can never have too many work tables.  
Scroll down to see how it all started.

This is the final product.

ROCKIN' and ROLLIN' PAINTING ROCKS and STONES

QUARANTINING SUCKS CORONA!
DON'T LET IT GET YOU DOWN!
Here is what I'm doing while I wait for my Garden Veggies to grow.

I scored a pile of Rocks, blocks, and flagstone (fb marketplace)
and here is my first project.



NOW on to MORE FUN PROJECTS


I used acrylics. Some Valspar samples from Lowes, and some regular acrylics.
I primed the blocks with Bulls Eye 123 primer, so paint would stick
(I don't think you could remove it anyway even if you wanted to!)
but it makes the colors go on brighter.

After painting, I sprayed with UV Krylon Acrylic. For the final step, I used Howard’s Sunshield Wax to protect it from fading or cracking or peeling.
