Spring Cleaning, Grandpa, and the Goblin in My Garage


Hi everybody! You might remember me from my everyday adventure where I was in a tense encounter with a group of raccoons. But wait, you say, that's not everyday, that's strange and unusual. I fully realize that, but it is everyday and normal for me, The Everyday Adventurer.

But that was a long time ago, you say? Yes, but what am I up to now. I am healing my body and my mind.

What does that mean? Okay, I'll admit it, it simply means that I'm cleaning out my garage. Literally. I packed all kinds of junk in my garage, and now I'm trying to sort through it all before Spring gets here.

I'm beginning with the front of my garage so that I can turn it into a tool area. I have three big tool boxes and a work table that I'll put there. I have lots of tools that need to be organized. The last person in my family who ever organized a place like this was my grandpa. So I'm going to dedicate my tool area to him.

Oh wait, you thought I was talking about cleaning my brain. I like my brain just the way it is, thanks. I am literally talking about the everyday adventure of cleaning out my garage. It may be one of my biggest and most challenging adventures yet. 

I packed a lot of garbage and junk in there. I've been sorting through boxes and boxes. I've thrown out more than I've kept. Soon I will defeat the goblin that is my messy garage.

And that's my tale. I know I only post here occasionally now. But that's okay, because most of you aren't even here anymore. You've moved on, but I'm still here, mostly lurking. This is a good place, my everyday adventures.

I'll talk to you later.
