May 10th:
Spent a lot of time sweeping/practically shoveling debris that is on patio. Tons! It is so awful out there. DH did not clean up after various
projects out there & just left stuff and over the years dirt, bugs,
tools, leaves, hair, trash -- rags, towels, fasteners, etc.were out
there. 2 pairs of Hiking Boots... that were just horrid!. There's still a
lot to go, but I made a big dent. Need to figure out how to get rid of
broken aquarium that is sitting on the Patio on the ground. I wanted to
give it away & DH insisted on not getting rid of it. I told him that
I did not have a place for it, but he said to just put it somewhere. I
put it on the Patio & told him and he knew it... and of course, now,
years later... it is broken & cannot be given away. I don't now
what to do with it.... wonder how I get rid of it?
Also Earlier
DH needed the workbench from Patio for sawing, etc. .... so he cleared
the top of that... which had bags of used charcoal and other
miscellaneous. Actually that was what prompted the Patio cleaning...
when he moved that it left a ton of debris all under it and around it.
So, I got that all up plus a lot more.
2 bags of debris from Patio put in outside trash can.
2 Towels
2 Rags
2 pairs of Hiking Boots
