Lots of pictures in this post…be ready!
Louie and I worked ourselves sick (literally) today cleaning and de-cluttering the garage to get ready for the electrician next week. We bought Louie a new compressor, and it needs to have a 220 hookup, so we needed to move stuff out of the way. We decided it would be a good day to haul stuff out. Here are some ‘before’ pictures. In this first picture, you can see a small yard shed. Our dear friends Jeff and Ronelle took it off our hands. Thanks guys! Decluttering…. Louie enjoyed this part, being the little pyromanic that he is! I don’t know if you can see them or not, but we lost control of a bunch of green packing peanuts. They took off across the parking lot, and were all heading the same direction. It looked like they were running away, and all following each other. We found them all congregated on the front side of the lot, but we left them there. I’m sure they were only resting and continued on their journey within minutes. (LOL!) Finally, the finished project. I love a tidy space! In case you are wondering what the block things hanging from the ceiling are, they are our motorcycle helmets in helmet bags. Louie said they looked like punching bags! Yes, there are three bags of golf clubs. (Hi, my name is Louie and I have an obsession with golf clubs. I pick them up at Goodwill, just like my wife Michelle picks up sewing machines and FABRIC! …and the crowd says, ‘Hi Louie!’) We have a van full of ‘stuff’ going to Goodwill tomorrow, and besides the burning, we took a bunch of cardboard to the recycling center.
We also spent about an hour in the ‘shoppe’ tidying up and vacuuming sawdust, etc. I sure did my share of sneezing today! Quoting my sweetie Louie…’As my old grandmother used to say….Much Gooder!’ (although I’m pretty sure when he tells me that, it’s just all a line of balony!)
Next space….Louie’s office (the eBay room). Ugh! (But not today!)
Hope you had a great day and felt your New Year’s day was productive too.
Be blessed,
Michelle
Looks good. Can I borrow thw pair of you to do Mal's shed. It is a pigsty and a death trap. He's been meaning to tidy it up for I don't know how long.

You guys were very productive. Did the garage have some heat going on in there...right now our weather is too cold to spend any time in the garage to speak of.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the weekend!
Oh it looks so nice! Giggle, you and Louie need to come here and clean out our outbuildings! :)

Looks great! It probably felt great to accomplish all of that! You did good!
ReplyDeleteOh my. You all did a lot of work. That is something we dread doing but has to be done soon. He keeps talking about it anyway. I hope it warms up before we tackle the garage.
ReplyDeleteMichelle we literally cannot walk into our garage. It's a detached one and besides all the normal stuff, holiday decorations, etc. Jerry also keeps his 4 wheeler, his riding lawn mower and his push mower, the generator, and that kind of stuff in there. We have an old boat house that needs some work to be usable but I'm hiring someone to do that so at least we could put the holiday decorations in it and he will have to quit saying it's my stuff cluttering up the garage! blessings, marlene
