It was nice to throw out "Crazy Bobby's" refrigerator and washing machine last night. There was SO much trash to drag around to the front of the house.
I also took off the pantry closet door and took out all of the shelves and swept it out - we've decided to just cut a hole in the back of the closet for a dryer vent and move the dryer upstairs next to the washing machine (when we do the kitchen in the fall we'll re-arrange things to be more ergonomic and roomy back there). I pulled off a piece of plywood from the back of the closet to see what was behind it (that closet used to be the back door of the house before the den addition was added) and there were the HUGE remains of an old smelly bee-hive. It appears to be dead but for the time being we promptly screwed back the plywood over it so as not to disturb any possibly remaining bees. When the time comes for the kitchen remodel we'll need to pull it and all the other crap in the wall out to nicely finish it with drywall.
Such excitement, the guys were plastering the living room last night and it may be ready for paint by at the end of the weekend (whee)! I need to get cracking on stripping the paint on the mantle and calling someone to check out our fireplace and chimney to see if they would be safe to use :)
