8 hours in the garage today. Got two more large cans of crap out including some bad scrap lumber that I should have gotten rid of last year. Everything is on the perimeter of the garage now, and I also was using the shop vac to make everything especially clean before putting anything anywhere. I removed all the random nails that were holding various tools, brooms and shovels and installed proper hooks for everything and made great use of my back wall with them, now being able to hang all 3 of my ladders, my spreader and my halogen work lights.
I've been keeping the car outside most days just so I don't have to move it to use the table saw or other various things, but I did want to pull in tonight and see how it works. I've got about 4 feet on either side of the car now, and I can walk to the service door from either in front or behind the car. I remember this time last year I could barely even open my door to get out of the car when I parked it in there.
I'll be out there all day tomorrow, but all the heavy lifting and getting up and down ladders should be done. It's just a matter of clearing out crap I don't need out of dressers I have out there to make room for good stuff, organizing tools and at least clearing off one of my two work benches completely so I can finally get to work fixing the power washer, backpack leaf blower and gas powered trimmer.
I'm going to need that power washer sooner than later before fixing the foundation, and I need to know now if I can fix it or if I need to buy a new one.
...
Then I mowed the lawn and finished in time to have a smoke and watch the sunset with a glass of Iced Tea.

GOOD DOG !
Jeeze - you'd think you were the only person on the entire planet doing shit to improve lives. Or that that makes you special.
Though MOST people aren't as monomaniacally selfish or such bloviating braggarts about their efforts as you.

Don't be a hater.

I'll pat my own back, thank you very much.
You really shouldn't pet strays. You might get bit.

I hardly need outside approval when I can look at things like this...

Strange... I couldn't find a before pic with both windows on the 2nd bedroom.
But yeah. I'm awesome.
And so is the A/C.

Nothing a handyman couldn't do JACK. And nothing that I haven't done.
You're not even average. You're just a wannabe - a pretender.

I'm not a handyman. I'm an artist.
And no, you couldn't.
You drunk on that box wine, Karen.
