Sale Prep - Day 11

Day 11 was also a day we spent doing work ourselves.  SPF finished off the door install with two tiny pieces of base board at the edge and we prepped for the final stage of painting.

It looks nice, huh?

Unfortunately, our garage is looking less nice and more like a hoarders nest.

That's okay, though.  Our goal is to get a lot of this stuff out of the house so that we can stage it.  Our realtor's exact words were "Whatever you can live without for three months, put in storage."  So, we are.  Actually, we're doing two better.  As things come out we are putting them in three piles:
1 - Store
2 - Give Away
3 - Trash

Sigh.  We have lost a lot of our sentimentality in this process, but so be it.  Do I really need that t-shirt from middle school where I went to that one day camp that I don't remember?  Probably no.  But someone else might like it, or it might be useful as recycled textile.  Still, though, a lot of this is getting stored and saved.  Turns out that living in a space for 12 years, almost 13, means accumulating a lot of crap.
