I hauled a truckload of boxes to my storage locker. Climate control there being out of the question for such a large space, realizing my old Pontiac I have in the rear of that locker is only barely visible behind all the flotsam. Damn if it's going to hit 113 here this weekend.
Realizing I'm overwhelmed, I must put the idea of re-vamping the Pontiac until at least fall.
I got a good deal on that space years ago, even better rate because I pay them yearly rent.
Comes in damn handy to put the flotsam and jetsam out of sight, out of the way.
Now that I'm retired I'll be able to sort through, expunge old records, eventually have a yard sale and trailer loads to the landfill transfer station. Once weather allows.
