Day 2323

 I woke up a little before 8 and played games for about an hour.  Then it was pet stuff and breakfast.  I also got Ellen out of bed.  Once breakfast was done we went to the shed.

We spent 3 to 4 hours going through stuff.  Some of the boxes were packed 14 years ago and never opened.  We found a lot of stuff we didn't need anymore and won't need in the future.  We also sound some cool old stuff like yearbooks that brought back memories.

Ellen had several boxes of art stuff.  Some of it went to Goodwill, some to the nieces, and some to the garbage.  She did keep a significant amount of stuff.  I bet she never uses it.  We got rid of two boxes of books.  One was filled with cat books and the other with gun books.  The cat books date from the 80's.  now days you get the information they contain on the internet.

It was after noon when we finished sorting everything.  I wanted to get rid of stuff, so some of the "keeper" stuff got left on shelves.  I loaded everything I'd moved to the truck yesterday onto the truck.  We spent some time looking for the key for the bike rack, but didn't find it.  Then I drove the truck to the shed and loaded what we had sorted today.  It included 2 big boxes of garbage.

We drove to Goodwill.  They wouldn't take the bike rack or the 5-wheel tripod.  They said go to Salvation Army or ReStore.  I drove to Salvation Army.  They took both.  The guy running the pick up was really nice.  Of course we went inside, but didn't find anything we wanted.

We also stopped at ReStore because we were nearby and had the truck.  It was successful.  I got a USB power brick and some bungee cords which I needed.  I also got a solar powered pink flamingo, which I wanted.

It was late and Ellen was hungry so we stopped at Doc's for lunch.  The next stop was Lowe's to get more keys made for the Ranger's trailer.  The last stops were HEB for bread and Wells Cargo for $150 for Lee's daughter.  Ellen wants to give her $200, so I'll be going back.

When we got home I took out the garbage and the recycle.  It wasn't hot like yesterday, but I was tired.  I went back inside and surfed.

Dinner was leftovers.  After dinner I sat down and watched whatever Ellen was watching.  At least it wasn't chick flicks.
