Clean Garage!


This afternoon, for the first time since mid November, we parked both our cars in the garage at the same time. Hooray! It all began like this ... We (and son Roger) moved a lot of "stuff" out of our house when we had new carpet installed in November. We made a pact that we would not move any of it back into the house unless it passed three tests: (1) have we used it in the past ten years? (2) is it more likely than not that we will have need for it in the next ten years? and (3) does it really need to be in the house? Any item that didn't pass the test was  either taken to the storage shed, discarded or given away. Getting all that taken care of has been on our mutual "to-do list" for about four months. With our mission-related time and energy demands, we haven't had the time or energy for the garage job ... until today. Well, we didn't have a lot of energy (we rarely do), but we had the time. We love spring break more than the students do!
