Day 91: Cleanliness

73. ✅ Clear out the flower bed in the front yard

Two words: scorched earth. Garden hoe: loosen the dirt. (Broke that hoe.) Shovel: remove the dirt. Sieve: Filter out all the crap in the dirt. What was left was a smooth patch of barren soil. I'm sure there are undesirables lurking beneath the surface, so I'll let it lie for a few days before I do anything else with it.

51.  Deal with the shred pile

This took days. I've been accumulating junk mail, old bills, and literally anything with my name, a family member's name, or our address on it for several months resulting in a two-foot tall stack of papers. It couldn't be done all at once, because (A) the shredder kept overheating, and (B) I kept running out of places to store the shreds. (They take up considerably more room than the unshredded sheets of paper.)

75  Clean off the workbench

Getting rid of the shred pile was the main roadblock in completing this task, but it's done. And now there's a bike up on the workbench just waiting for new tubes to be installed.
