Make it Mine

I have a boat project all my own. And… I am so excited.  Surprisingly so.

Hubs has been waiting for me to take some ownership; to want it.  Make it mine.  Whatever.  It is his dream, but I am along for the ride and its not always so fun in the passenger seat.  I have been doing my thing.  Doing whatever task he asks (most of the time begrudgingly).  I have been almost completely present to this project.  But now… I have my own thing to do.  By myself.  With no supervision.  Start to finish.  And it’s not that big.  You won’t even see it.   But, I will know.  And right now that is so huge.  Because as his dream becomes my dream… I am able to stake some claim to the work.  The dirty work, not the regular domesticated work of living a life with a family.  BOAT WORK.
Bottom paint.  Sanding, cleaning, taping, and painting.  Really not a big deal.  But sort of a game changer :)
Never~ ever thought I would be stoked on sanding and painting.
