We have been very busy...

We recycled two van loads of just wine bottles.

We have made two trips to Goodwill.

And we took a van load of paper to the recyclers.

Go ahead and say 'this woman has a hoarding problem.'

I found stacks of newspapers from 1996; which is the year she moved into the house.

Mr. Farmer cleaned out the refrigerator and freezer too.

Notice he is wearing a respirator?

The fridge still had food in it and the owner moved out over five months ago!

It smelled so rancid, I could not get close enough to take a photo.

I found this in the freezer.

I know the photo is fuzzy, but the label on these chicken livers says

 'use by 09 23 98.'

WHAT?

This is what we are dealing with. Not pretty! 

We moved one of Mr. Farmer's trucks to the house, 

and we have been loading it with junk, furniture with dog odors and carpet.

Things are starting to look better.

 This is what the garage looked like the day we closed.
(She hoarded toilet tissue, among other things.)

 And this is what the garage looks like now.

All nice and clean. 

We found six dog kennels and two Oriental rugs hiding in the garage.

Plus a mama mouse and her babies.

And this treasure was in the basement.

Made of wire and Poodle hair.

Priceless!
