My condo is a mess and I blame the back alley. Let me elaborate
Last year I purchased a nice deck chair. Probably spent too much on it, but it was nice to use to sun myself with. Now that winter is here (has been for awhile) I brought it indoors with the intention of putting it into my storage locker. Up until an hour ago it was still taking up the lion’s share of the space in my computer room. It was surprising how used to it I got. Even with it gone now, it feels weird not to avoid it while migrating to the computer.
The reason it took me so long to put it into my storage locker is that the locker is only a cage within the parking garage. Because the back alley, that the garage opens onto, is not paved, it is incredibly dusty down there. I could not justify putting an expensive deck chair down there.
So today I finally got around to buying a plastic tarp. I spent about two to three hours trying to get the tarp wrapped around the inside of the locker. Now that I have protection against the dust, I’ve taken the chair down.
With the elephant in the corner gone, I can now focus on some of the more achievable mountains of insurrection in the war against mess.
