What project are you embroiled in? It's it going well? What hangups are you running into? And, dare I ask, are you having fun with it?

I don't know if it is ridiculous but the whole ordeal feels ludicrous. Basically, we've moved into a house that had been previously flipped. I am not sure who the previous owners were, but they absolutely used their yard as a trash can. We found an entire mattress hidden beneath a large pile of brush. The ridiculous part is our futile attempt to clean up all the glass! I think the only way to get rid of it all would be to dig up all the grass and replace it, but we are renting and I am not upgrading the home for them, so we've just been slowly picking it all up as we find it.
