Shannon's Help Meet

Day 1 of our cleaning

Today was day 1 of our cleaning junk out.   We started in the tack/storage unit on the ranch.   What we did is take it all out, move all the saddle racks, bridle holders, blanket hanger, halters hangers, medicine chest moved, blanket boxes, hog supplies, goat supplies to the verry back of the unit rehung it all and organized the rest.  The best part is we went through it all donated some, trashed some.  We were shocked to see we have 11 saddles!  And  I need a new one for my pony .  Mine one is to long for his short back.  It works for now.

We put on one side the keep stuff and made stack of go through stuff.  Then we put the yard sale donate stuff on one wall along with my patio table and chairs that will be moved to the patio in the next few days. 

We also cleaned up one barn stall that has toys in it for the grand-babies. We still have to pick up the crushed boxes in that stall, we filled up 4 trash cans.   Then I started in the feed shed.  Why did I do that .  Hubby fixed the shed gate , thank you hubby .  I picked up empty feed bags, hay ties.  But we need to empty out all the barrels and take out the hay holders, then rake it out and level it. Maybe tomorrow.

Tomorrow is the day we will take everything out of the garage for me to go through.  I will make a keep stack , a donate one, a yard sale one and a trash one.   The keepers will be moved to the ranches storage unit as will the yard sale one. 

I am turning the garage into a family room for the girls and grand-babies.    I will put a rug in there with a futon  a t.v. center with t.v. and game units.  Put the books out there , toys , sewing machines and more.

Dinner was easy tonight fast food.  Well I am off to soak in a nice long hot bath, my leg is hurting from working so much today and hot baths help.  Maddie is staying the night tonight, Jeffie and Michelle are sick.

That all for today God Bless, mj
