As my property lay covered in debris and hazardous plywood, I began to stress about what went from a to-do list to a to-do encyclopedia. I’m sure my neighbors driving through the alley were asking, “Why, why did they sell the house to the fuzzy guy who’s outside all the time?”

To answer your pondering, we have begun the first stage of our complete garage remodel. (Needed TLC :) )

I had an absolute massive amount of trash to haul this weekend result from its gutting by a contractor. I cut work off earlier than I like to squeeze in a dump (heheh... heh) run (also heh) on Thursday afternoon and one today right before they closed. I came straight home and loaded the fuck out of the truck for what was the third time. I managed to get everything in there! What I dreaded taking all weekend, having wisely chosen to get a head start will allow me to something other than rot in traffic and lines on a beautiful Saturday.

If I had my old short box this would be a nightmare, as the plywood would hang out back too far and would overall take at least five loads. But with the beautiful 7.5 ft bed that no one even offers anymore on “small” pickups, I will be free! Not to mention the awesome little factory hooks they welded to the outside of the bed under the lip.

And now, I shall drink a well-deserved beer.

I bet I could fit that into my Spark.

But seriously, you deserve that beer.

Hah. Those “who needs a truck” posts. To each their own, I say.

I wore a respirator while handled all this stuff, so if you have a Yukon, you COULD have done this but you probably would die en route.

My dad and I moved my stuff about two months ago. We did it in an Edge, but it would have been a fuckton easier with a full truck or van.

Yeah, roll down the windows for that shit, and you might make it.

I don’t even remember the last time I cut my hair or trimmed my beard.

Cheers buddy. Sounds like the same shit I go through with my house. There are never enough dump runs.

You might be able to fit the Spark in that bed.

He explained it to me. Facial hair............well, and maybe elsewhere.

Considering the huge price cut we got on the house due to a whole few weekends of dirty work for the buyer, I am very happy we went with this house.

Making it your own is a great feeling.
