Cleaning House and Keeping Order With "Stuff"

After several years living at our current location (we're still renting), one begins to notice how many "things" one has aquired. Especially if your other half is a bit of a pack rat. What do you do when you have all these "things" and the hubby just won't let you weed out the trash from what's useful? You store it. Somewhere.

A particular peeve of mine is bits of lumber that "will be good for something". Left over project parts, or perhaps projects that never really started, strewn across the garage floor. I wish I could throw it all to the curve! But oh no, the hubby says he's going to use it. So what do you DO with it? 

So here I am muttering away trying to clean up the garage, and the neighbor comes to my rescue with a handheld strapping machine. God love him! We strapped up that lousy lumber and it now lives happily against the back wall, tidy and secure. I have no idea where he got the thing, but it sure was handy.

Unfortunately for him, I found many other uses for that strapping tool and after a few hours I had pretty much boxed, strapped, wrapped or tossed the stuff in our garage. And too bad what the hubby says, I didn't see him helping me out! Go me!
