glad that is finally done...
Tackled the worst of it yesterday. First major clean up since my accident 2 1/2 years ago. Last on the list is to find out what is going on under the bed - where the monsters live... 95,96,76,0,W
I cleaned a little and the dust is always monumental here near San Antonio. Years ago, older women warned me about it. They said it blows over from Africa.??
I knew a guy... he had put shelving in his basement... and on those shelves.. he had plastic containers.. dozens.. perhaps a hundred of more .. where he kept everything... that's all he did most days...
ugh
but John's abode did need a little make-over and he done good! (I'd still put harder coverings on floor and counter).
we have a rule in our house though in this day of Amazon/online.. when we get a new thing...we have to get rid of one old thing... especially if it means something gets gets put off to the side.. or stored.. we sell it or give it away.. and what we don't sell or give away - it goes to the landfill.. where in our county - Goodwill has.. you guessed it, on on-site shipping container !
Wouldn't be such a big job if you had a smaller house. ;-)

ReplyDeleteYou have that beautiful trailer, why not live in there?
ReplyDeleteYup, that sure looks spick and span.

Good job!!!
