There is no room

I just changed the cats' litter boxes. There is nothing remarkable about that statement, other than it being true, and other than the fact we have outdoor cats. Forget the fact our outdoor cats have litter boxes. It makes little sense, but that's immaterial here.

What is material, is that the litter boxes are in the garage.

Our cars are in the driveway.

That the cars are in the driveway has nothing to do with the cats. No, the cars are in the driveway because our upstairs bathroom is going through a total overhaul, and the men working on the project need a place for their tools and equipment.

There are workhorses upholding a makeshift table, a giant saw for cutting tile and cement board, and a few five-gallon buckets. The remaining space is taken up by a cacophony of objects, including what was once in the bathroom and is now on loan for this exhibit, an exhibit I like to call, "A Bunch of Crap." These things will move back into the bathroom when the project is completed: a claw-footed tub, and a vanity. But this is not all our garage holds. There are also some of the kids' toys from the summer. A big wheel, five bikes, some athletic equipment, two ladders, a lawnmower, shovels for the snow that is sure to come, rakes for leaves that have come and still remain. A couple of Rubbermaid cans to hold our rubbish. And, lest I forget, two fresh litter boxes.
