Yesterday I was able to get some work done in the garage. My husband was home and took care of the kids for me

I tried taking my daughter in there a few days ago but then found a black window spider and that was that! No more kiddies in the garage until it is done.
I was able to listen to the Book of John on CD while I worked. It was nice. The only draw back is that I had a terrible knot in my stomach the whole time waiting to meet a scary spider...or some thing worse!
The area I worked on has a few cabinets which I had to OPEN. I have lived here for 3 years and they had not been opened yet - too much stuff in front of them

It was not too bad. But it wasn't great either. If I have one tip for you it is ...
when you move out of a home deal with your stuff! It doesn't just disappear - someone will have to deal with it eventually. That lucky someone is me. Here are a few pictures of some of the stuff I have found ( and none of it is mine):
I don't even know what half this stuff is. Most of it is being thrown out! I was too scared to touch that box. You know something must be living in there! My husband came and got it out for me. Isn't he sweet! Mice have been munching on it and made it their home. They are not there now. I have no idea of knowing how long ago they were there either.
I bleached everything!
I had some serious dust to clean too:

Here is my after shot for the day:

This is what it looked like before:

I guess I've done quite a bit.
The challenge is over on Wednesday night.
Check back late Wednesday (or Thursday morning) to see if I finished the race!
