Shoal Creek Encampment is this weekend. Last Thursday after school I went to the Goodwill Thrift Store on N.Oak to look for a new chair. I found a nice captains chair for $3.98. since I need a new table I decided to purchase the wooden kitchen and table set that was there also. Got a nice period looking wooden table and three chairs for $14.95 the total bill including the captains chair was only$21.00 and change after tax.

Nick and Terry used two of kitchen set chairs at the College of the Surgeon last weekend. I used the captains chair. This was a good buy. The chairs are sturdy. The kitchen chairs need to be refinished to a more period look. After the funeral yesterday, Margaret and I went to James County in Liberty. I purchased a lice comb, some crepe for my mourning band, a new mourning tie and one dozen candles. While at Wal-Mart I picked up some paint and varnish remover which I will use tonight to remove the finish from the chairs. Tomorrow I will paint them with a clear epoxy. I will also stain my medical desk. If I can remove the legs from the table I will take it to the encampment this weekend.

I need to purchase some sticky rice to double as lice for sick call and some vegetable soup for a "low diet". A stop at A-Z Theatrical in need for more make-up.
