Thought for the day

Now that summer's almost over, i've decided it's time to get off of my butt and do something constructive......FINALLY.  So, both Michael and i have begun the process of a massive cleaning out/overhaul of our stuff.  Why?  Because we both have too much of it.  Granted, i probably have more than him, since 95% of the stuff out in the garage is mine.  Oh well.

Thursday, my day off of work this past week, was spent in starting to clean out and organize the garage.  It began because a friend and coworker of mine was moving into a new apartment and i was giving her a chest of drawers that was out there.  So, i had to clean out the chest, which was full of Christmas decor, and then i had to clear a path to be able to get the chest out of the garage.  Our garage has both a garage door and a regular door.  However, the garage door is blocked by too much exercise equipment that we don't use.  Oops LOL

Anyway, i did enjoy it because it was like a work out.  i was sweating my ass off out there.  But, i managed to accomplish my goal.  And, in moving the chest closer to the door, i noticed that it still had the original furniture tag on the back of it.  The chest use to be part of a bedroom suite, but i don't know that happened to the other pieces over time.  Still, it's a good solid piece despite a few scratches.  And, honestly, i was glad that Tiffany and her husband could use it.  No sense in it sitting in the garage.

So, that's kind of our mind frame right now.  At least, my mind frame anyway LOL  The back of my car is slowly filling up with goodies for Goodwill.  And Michael has begun thinning out his clothes and adding to our donation pile.  It's really a good feeling to let go of things....especially when someone else may benefit from them.

Hopefully tomorrow i can get back in there for a while and do some more of this.  i'm honestly trying to find a use for most things and if i can't i have to really consider whether or not i need to hold onto it. Somethings will definitely stay, but i think a lot of it can be sold and/or given away.  Wish me luck!

So, if you need anything for your house/apartment, let me know.  Chances are i have something you can use out in the garage haha!

Cheers
