friday on/friday off

CWS Fridays usually don't really seem like days off. (matt works 9/10 hour days every day and then gets every other friday "off") Last Friday was an especially busy one. as soon as the kids left for school, on the very last day of school, too, we pulled everything out of the garage, took down all the bins from all the shelves and swept and vacuumed the whole thing.

then we had the super fun job of deciding what to put in the shed, what to put back on the high shelves, and what to leave in the more accessible parts of the garage.

stressful. at one point matt said "i don't like you very much when we do jobs like this." ha, i felt the same way! why does work like that have to be so stressful! especially for a bunch of pack rats like us that are constantly fighting our pack rat tendencies.

when the girls woke up, they "helped," so that was fun. then i found a petrified mouse, so that wasn't fun. i wore gloves after that.

we finally got everything put back in it's place and matt had just enough time to hang a third bike rack before he had the scouts come over for a fundraiser. (they mowed yards in our neighborhood to raise money for camp)

now we can park both cars nicely and neatly in the garage again.

and the shelves are all easily accessible because they're not so loaded with rubbermaids.

the shed needs a loft and storage shelves built, but other than that, it's great.

and all is right in the garage/shed world again.
