It's About Me

Archive for June, 2006

So I’ve spent the past week or so cleaning trash, real stinky trash, out of the neighbors yard, house, barn, garage, dog house…you name it if it was a space it had trash.

I’ve never seen so much garbage in one place before. The kid (the horse abuser – Jerrit Engledow) next door up and left and finally the real owners were able to buy back what should have been theirs in the first place. He sure left a mess and since Natacha and Ernie live in Colorado and will be making several trips to haul farm equipment, house stuff, cattle, and junk I figured they would need a place to stay during each trip.

I ponied up, threw on some leather gloves and hit the ground running. 40 some odd 50 gallon trash bags later, the yard and the house were cleaned out. The garage, barn and garage apartment are still left. Smells like something is dead over there too. Hope it’s not that little dog! I scrubbed and scrubbed the kitchen and bathroom and got finished in the nick of time for their first load delivery. Talk about some happy campers!! I thought Natacha was going to never quit crying. Bless her heart.
