2020 was surely the year to get things done. Many people had extra time on their hands and were spending more time at home so they turned to household projects. My household project was purging my home. Like almost MINIMALIST purging.

I started in my garage attic. I pulled down the attic steps and all by myself I went up and down the steps bringing down every item in the attic.We had sleds, beach toys, boogie boards, shelves, tents, outside Christmas decorations, car roof top boxes, car ski racks, car bike racks, extra wood... all kinds of stuff. After I got all the stuff down from the attic I took a broom up there and swept up all the debris.

We then moved to the house at 10 Parkway Drive (also no longer there). I LOVED THAT HOUSE! My fondest childhood memories were made in that house. We lived there until I was in the 6th grade. My parents then bought a home in Lafayette Township on Lafayette Rd where they lived another 22 years.

I learned to ride my bike on First Street. I learned to swim in Chippewa Lake. I remember swimming out to the dock and under the dock… playing in the sand at the beach.

My mom and I would walk down to the docks and fish and she wouldn't catch a thing. I'd toss my line in and catch a fish right away...
