Well another day slaving away.

Am still at the brightwork, it's driving me crazy, it is so hard work.

Tom gave me a lend of his heat gun to try and get the varnish off, it works a little bit.

Nothing seems to work real good at all.

Anyway after hours and hours, I gave up, it's just too hard.

Am really feeling like this is mans work not females, for me this is huge, as anyone who knows me .....well I always think that I can do anything a man can do.

I just can't do it, maybe it's the stress of all we have to do, maybe it's my poor hands that are cracked and starting to split open, or  just way too tired, I don't know, but I spat the dummy, and downed tools and went and had a sleep, well after a huge cry first.

So woke up after a few hours sleep, do I feel any better?  No, am still teary, but the captain decided if we do it together for a few hours morning and then a few hours in the afternoon we will slowly get it done.

I don't think he actually  gets it, I don't want to do it at all, but I know I will keep at it, and with many a tear shed for sure.

Well tomorrow is another day.
