The garage

The garage had not been cleaned properly in years. Oh yes, just a few months ago I had hired a teenager to clean it up a little and that is what I got: a little. Now this couple went at it and they threw tons and tons of stuff away and are cleaning and suddenly I have empty shelves. Imagine! We found a brand new ironboard that had never left the cartoon, a complicated snow shovel - brand new - but in pieces in the orginal box, books - new - in a carton and long forgotten, a bench, never out of the box, a ladder, never out of the box. That was just the new stuff. The old stuff went by bag after bag out the door. I can't wait to park the car again AND be able to put my foot out the door.
