OK..... I picked up a Pottery Barn twin bed for DD21 and she chose to use the bed and headboard only, leaving the tower units and overhead shelving in the garage...in the way.... heavy as heck.  My sib and I loaded those 3 pieces up and drove to the Lake for install in the 6' and 7' closets as towers.  They're really nice and just perfect for the 6', bc the ceiling is pretty low in there. 

That means both sides of the garage are about to be open enough to park 2 cars, which is what we're down to since DD23 moved out with her childhood friend.... very mature and responsible J.  They come by every Sunday for homecooked Mommy food, which they appreciate so much now.  Very refreshing. Sometimes they do laundry then we play cards.  Last week DD23 did school work in my room while the rest of us played cards.  Tonight 3 of us played. 

I keep veering off topic.  OK.  I've been storing extra appliances, pots, pans and assorted household items in shelving and using them up.  Once DD23 has her new apartment rental, they'll need many of those things. The current rental has everything in the kitchen provided.  I keep pairing down stuff in my kitchen and at the lake.  It feels good and I don't miss that many things, truthfully. 

What will it mean to have the garage clear enough to house an huge Yukon and a little CrV?  I think it'll feel like Christmas!  Esp since since the limb broke a back window in the other CrV sitting in the driveway.  I love large old trees, but they have their dangers.

Today I was walking in the forest with the Pug and the wind kicked up, prompting me to look up at the very high sway tree tops.  I thought.... alive, not dead trees.... not too dangerous and felt pretty good about my chances of getting out of the wood unscathed.  Something plopped onto the earth about 3 feet from me, as if to say......don't make assumptions. 

::sigh::

I have to admit, I'm a little overwhelmed with watching where I walk (huge tree roots all along the paths) watching for trail poop, so the pug doesn't scarf or sniff and also voiding the really scary dead trees on windy days, requiring I look up, forward and down perpetually, if I'm being careful.
