Ever find your cart ahead of the horse?

Thats and old expression my Dad always used, but it is kinda what happened to me this afternoon....I've been prepping and painting a few old crankbaits that Bama gave to me awhile back, and for some reason I suddenly felt the need to clearcoat them today, and the next thing ya know I'm clearing away when I suddenly wake up and realize these baits weren't ready for clear yet!!!!......I hadn't applied or painted eye's, I hadn't painted kill spots or gills, and in a couple of cases I hadn't finished darkening the backs or lightening the belly.....

.....What the heck was I thinking???

Well, actually I'm pretty sure I know.....We had a friend of the family attempt suicide last nite and he's been on my mind all day.

.....I'm pretty sure thats how I ended up workin in a daze and ended up with my cart in front of my horse....lol

.....Guess I'll be sanding them back down later and add the final steps....DUH!!....They sure are pretty freshly cleared aren't they?....hehehe.
