I am going to get around to re-finishing that desk sometime, I promise.We’re starting on a new project!.

I was so confused at why I would “declutter” every week by filling an extra garbage bag or two with stuff from the basement or random closets and yet I never really seemed to make a big dent in it at all.. You know all of those amazing built-in projects that Chris puts together?This is what happens afterwards in the garage if you don’t have any kind of system for storing all of that extra stuff..

I was so tired of all of this.I just wanted it out.I got it in my head that I wanted to rent a little dumpster and just take care of it all at once.

So after harping on that for a good 5 months, we finally got around to it this Fall.Boy did we ever get around to it.. Chris called the dumpster rental company and I laughed so hard when this thing was dropped off in our driveway the next morning.

It’s the size of our whole garage!

Chris decided he would just get the biggest one just because “Why not?” and that way if we decided to demo the bathroom too that week, we’d have more than enough room.. There’s no way a family of 3.5 could fill that thing in a week even if they demo’d 7 bathrooms right?.Who’s going to solicit way out here?

That would be some serious exercise for that poor door-to-door salesman..So I got out my tape and my chalkboard spray paint and I changed them!.

And the signs even worked!When the UPS guy came last week, he came and knocked on the inside door to the kitchen instead of banging away out here where I can’t hear him..
