It sure looks like we are clutter freaks! I know I am. DB was not, see the word “was”? Yep, when I first moved to this country, living in his clutter free apartment, he was always picking up all the time. That aptment was really well organized and totally no clutter. But after I came and not too long, the clutter started and he too picked up my super bad trade, slowly but surely.

That’s our garage right now. At least we moved more then enough to get my car in. His truck is parked outside for now till we can clear up the other side of the garage.

Our mission hopefully this June is to sell the riding and push mower, weed wackers. The riding mover comes with the fertilizer spreader and don’t know what else. Man’s toys, I have no idea what they are called. Next, we also need to sell the washer and dryer that are sitting all the way back against the wall along the refrigerator. That refrigerator has been with him forever and it works damn good. So that we are keeping. Now, I can’t make up my mind if I want to sell the  NordiacTrac elliptical machine.  It’s also sitting all the way behind, covered up by boxes!  I know I want to get rid of the Bowflex and a heavy oak desk.  That sucker is definitely going!  There are still some stuff left in the old house’s garage.  I think there are more of his tools and a dozen fishing poles and his tackle boxes.  Yeah, that man sure loves to fish and cannot part with his fishing poles.  Also there are some boxes of ammos for his guns in the old garage. 

Oh, you see the two blocks of wood on the lower left coner?  We have more in the old house.  They are all oak wood, great for fire places but since no one wants them and we don’t have a wood fireplace, we are going to still bring them over to this new garage….the man said, “just in case we buy a fire pit.”  o.O  I wanted to just leave them in the old house but the realtor said everything that belongs to us has to go!  So, we have to haul them over today.

Here are a few pictures of the inside of the house. Just to remind you, I didn’t pick up the house or put things away when I took these pictures…clutter galore!

The entryway…..stairs facing the front door. I think according to fung shui, it’s not good. All the chi will flow right out the door!

Another view of the entryway. (Ranger taking a siesta.)

The fireplace in the living room. The big hole above the fireplace is meant for a TV, but the old fashion big screen TV is damn big as you can see on the right, can’t fit into that hole. The fireplace is run by gas/electric.  We will put up Igor (the deer head) to fill up the hole instead of what we have up there now!  The clock is for the kitchen.

The living room. Our furniture is too darn big for the room!  Igor sitting on top of the TV for now.

Here is the dining room. The one and only TV in the house now that is digital. It is now hooked to a digital antenna. No satelite or cable yet.

The kitchen. First door next to refrigerator is the bathroom (just the toilet and sink) and the door next to it is the utility room (furnace, water heater and softener).

The pantry without the shelves is under the stairs.

The spot for coffee and toast. Underneath that table is where the water bowl for the dogs. We feed the dogs against the wall where the recycle can is (with black bag).

The room to the left is the storm shelter/room. Door across it is the 1/4 bathroom, then the utility room and then the door to the garage (not shown). We put a rug and a stool to put on and take off our shoes.

The storm shelter is now a storage area for dog chow, vacuum cleaner, shampooer, paper towels, coolers, etc.

The kitchen sink area and picture below is where the pantry is.

As you can see, pretty much everything in the house is white in color and we have already dirtied some of the walls, cabinets and doors.

Pictures of upstairs will come later…
