One Heraklean Act on the Garage
This weekend Mookee finally had enough of the garage. After years of talking about it he finally decided to act and clean out the garage. I helped. It had accumulated years and years worth of junk from us and the landlord, some of which had been there for probably ten years. So a U-Haul was rented and hands got dirty and after a load and a half (the first leaving literally no room in the back) taken to the dump it was done. I wish I’d thought to take before and after pictures. I can say that while before it was sometimes a tight squeeze to fit two cars in the garage, we are now thinking we might be able to fit three in there.
It only took Herakles only one day to clean the Augean Stables but I figure with two days we did well enough. Now if only I could do the same to my rooms…

10 years? I’d say some of it was there for a significantly longer time than that.

Likely but
I thought I would just throw in 10 years as a convenient number. As some of that stuff like the old stove or typewriter are probably from the landlord’s childhood days you are quite correct; some of it was much older.
