Sandy and her boyfriend Robert came up to visit, and since they were trying to find the cats in my garage so they could take them in for their shots, they helped me clean out the garage too. HURRAY! Kyle is just about NEVER home (working 2 jobs still) so I just leave giant messes, such as the garage, alone and try to take care of the kids, laundry and dishes. And IF I get around to taking care of anything else it’s just a bonus. So since we needed to find the cats, and that meant moving things out of the way to get to the cats, we made 3 piles.
- One pile of stuff that Kyle and/or I need to sort.
- One pile of stuff we don’t need any more to give away.
- And one very large pile of GARBAGE.
The pile to sort is the biggest by far, but I KNOW that a great deal of that is garbage or give away stuff too, it just needs to be sorted. 😉 But check out the garbage pile:
WOW! We’ve been storing a lot of trash!
Then since they drove up in Robert’s pick up truck he and Sandy filled it up with a load of stuff to take to the dump. Well really it was just the broken box spings from Kyle’s old bed, Kyle’s old and nasty recliner, and Nana’s videos!
Yes that is a lot of videos. And they’ve all been sitting in the garage since Nana moved in here back in 2005. Then she moved out about 15 months later and the videos stayed in the garage because she couldn’t take them to the nursing home with her. Then she died about a year later, and those tapes have been in the garage….until now!
