Day 3110 Dumpster diver.

19th February 2026

Another spring-like day with temperatures up in the fifties, when will the snow return?

I was in two minds if I should put the snow blower back in the shed, but I’ll make that decision next week.

I continued on the door for the combination unit, which has been sold by the way to Nancy, but we have to repaint it to match other pieces she has in the room.

We also finished a three drawer dresser that we were given, all it needed was a guide rail on the top drawer which I knocked out in record time.

We took pictures, posted it, and someone is coming tomorrow morning at 11.00 to view it.

Now we have nothing left in the garage to work on.

There was some strange goings on over at Larry’s place. There is a dumpster at the front where all the stuff that wasn’t moved was filled.

There was a guy looking through it, taking out any metal bits, no doubt trying to get a few bucks for it.

The whole thing has been strange, Larry wasn’t the neatest person, is garage was filled with stuff and the house had ample things in it also.

Instead of holding an estate sale to get rid of it, the daughter arranged large trucks, that turned up in the evening, and they worked all night loading all the contents into them, they did it three times, not sure what was done with it, maybe dumped in the lake, there wasn’t much of value, it was just an accumulation of a lifetime of junk.

Which I’m sure we all have.
