The last big area that needed bailing out around here at the moment is my counter top in the garage. The area is difficult because I have bulbs in peat moss overwintering, a whole huge basket filled with iris rhizomes waiting for early spring to be planted somewhere, stuff brought in from the front porch, else. It’s also the area where my husband has decided is the extra storage for pop, tea, wine, beer, water, etc.
At least now there is a clean area of counter top between stuff that needs to be up off the ground so the doggies can’t get them and part of the drinks area. And the counter top is actually shiny!
To the left of this picture is my elliptical trainer, now being used for at least 15 minutes daily. There is a fan attached to the wall in front of the trainer that I can turn on when it’s too warm in the garage. Now I’m wearing a vest at least part of the time because we’ve had a cool spell lately. It’s funny that this is the only place we could put the trainer. It has to be on concrete or hard flooring without rugs or carpet. We didn’t want it in the kitchen, pantry, dining area or utility room, so this was the only space left. It’s only a bit difficult when we’re having weather extremes.

It is nice to get so much cleaned up, that it is possible to keep an overview of, what we have at storage for later, Linda 🙂

I keep trying to take one area at a time, go through things, donate what others might use, throw away a bunch of stuff, and then reorganize the rest. We’ve been in the same house since 1987, so I stay very busy in this effort. :0)

I stopped counting for how many houses and cities, as I have lived in for some years ago. This helps a lot to get cleaned out, every time I need pack and unpack. I don’t wish to carry more than needed with me. But I do still have lots to move with.

I hear you, Irene. Moving is the very best way to pare things down to the things you really need. We’re almost immovable now.
