Planning and organizing :)

So these past two weeks we have working on and clearing out the garage.
A lot of organizing and sorting - moving things to store in the basement or stuff 
we need up to the second floor.
Opening up all the wedding presents and the left over decoration was fun. 
But yeah we have a lot more sorting to do and have a lot of things to sell :) 
At this time however we have decided to just take things out of the garage and go through it later. 
The basement before....
  We bought some shelving...
 Wiki playing in the packaging...
 
 After a couple of hours...
 Our sorting station...
  The garage before...
 
After...
 We still got a little more work to do, but we are getting there...
 Now we just have to build that shed to hold all the lawn equipment :) 
as you can see it has taken over half of the garage...it is probably the next thing we are going to tackle...
 Some other things we have had to deal with...Wiki learned to go through the gate down the stairs into the back lawn. Which worries us cause nothing prevents him from just jumping over the fence.
So we tried to Wiki proof the deck.
With the left over aluminum mesh... yaaay finally got to use our staple gun :)
  It was a little mangled from using it as a sieve on the rocks in the front yard...
 And it was a success...for a little while at least...
 Haa haaa Wiki re-planning his escape...
But then he figured out the shortest jump to the ground and now he just jumps off of there :/
So now we got to go get more mesh and put it around the entire deck :/
For now Wiki gets no outside time!

We got him a fountain since the pump on his old drinking unit died, and he loves drinking flowing water.
This time we just got him this...we didn't like the actually pet water thingies they has for sale.
So that he can drink and relax indoors :) It seems to be working...

 We got some more lawn stuff...all the more reason to get that shed ASAP:)
 We got it so that we could water our dying grass. We also bought a different sprinkler - with a wider range found it to give better coverage. Look at it go...
 While we were out there we thought we would try and tackle the railing and 
see what it would take to get it off. Well turns out nothing is as easy as it seems. 
The screws used...some don't have a head anymore and others are way too rusted out. So we are going to have to saw it off. Oh well will have to tackle it some other time. 
  Happy web browsing everyone!
More exciting stuff to come :)
