View from inside the new shop building. Whenever I get the energy I'll rip some 1×12's down to 1×3's for batts and trim around the windows. I'll dig the snow out and start framing the east wall tomorrow.

Yesterday I vacuumed (with a weak stick vacuum that ran out of battery on me) up the spots I could get to in the living room. I need to go in more aggressively with the shop vac for some spots. Also need a carpet shampooer. I know I've had the shampoo type of vacuums but I can't remember if I ever used it for shampoo and vacuuming. I don't recall Mom ever doing that either. Even though the battery can run out, the cordless vacuums are so much easier to handle.

After vacuuming I went to help my friend and his wife move furniture and stuff to their new house.

This morning I cooked for Mom and brought in cat food for kitties. Waiting to see if friend needs more help moving. He just messaged to say the new fridge doesn't fit. I knew it wouldn't because I measured the height of his fridge and the distance from floor to bottom of cabinet and told him it wouldn't fit. He'll have to trim the upper cabinet to make it fit.

Not going to bombard with tons of pics, but this is the abridged version of what I had to deal with bc of Mom's nasty habit of just throwing trash across the room. My brother promised multiple times to clean it up and never did. I got tired of constantly trying to keep up with it and had a case of the "screw its" and didn't mess with it (bc I'd already cleaned it up 3x before and she kept making more mess). I did finally get her to stop throwing trash over there though.
