I really should get rid
of that Mexican hat. Why is it
under the stairs? Probably
it found its way there with the
folding chairs which see the light of day
only when we have guests.
Three plastic basins. Would we
ever need all of them at once? Well
remember that Easter hike?
Long-forgotten years-old pots
for the patio. Seems too much like
hard work these days. Buy a
ready-planted hanging basket
if you want to look like a gardener.
Coats not worn for years. So
get rid of them! Let's just see
if we need them sometime soon.
Umbrellas, walking sticks
fall over whenever you open
the door. Probably the best thing
is to keep it closed.
