The whole 10 yards

Amazing how much trash you can come up with in a day.

Robert ordered a 10-yard roll-off Tuesday morning. They said it would arrive about noon, but I'm glad I was at the house around 9 to let the driver know where we wanted it.

We started on the trash at the porch, plus dug-up roots, plus the big cartons the A/C units came in. Rotten timing -- it was in the upper 80s, and afternoon sun.

We got a fresh start this morning, cleaning out the deck, master bedroom, den, little guest room and finally the big room.

Sweep, cough, vacuum, sweat, sneeze. By the end of the day, the downstairs was far cleaner than we were.
