It made a real mess. There was a bottle of DIF wallpaper remover right next to it, and that bottle had kind of disintegrated (from the solvent fumes?) and was mostly empty, so the puddle on the concrete floor was a wet sticky mess of dissolved plastic and yucky solvent stuff watered down with DIF. It was right next to the main sewer stack, so at first, I thought I had a sewage leak. Absolutely no odor, so the solvent was pretty much gone by the time I cleaned it up.

Bonus is that I took an inventory of the old latex paint cans as I was deciding whether to clean them off to save them or just get rid of them. And I had to empty the entire shelving unit to pull it away from the wall to clean up the puddle back there. So I went through it to throw out junk.

Looks like I have a trip to the household hazardous waste drop off in my near future. Hope they are open tomorrow.

There's too much crap in this basement. I need a garage.

Random but regular incoming phone calls from an "International" number which, when you answer, say nothing and hang up within a couple of seconds.

Awww sheesh, I was out in my shed yesterday looking for something. ARGH. I borryed a ladder from a neighbor to get to the upper level. What a mess.

Boxes and boxes and boxes of...stuff. Clothes. Books. Knick-knacks. Pens. Papers. Even stuffed animals. I've probably got a fortune just in big plastic storage containers (there is no rhyme or reason as to what is living in cardboard and what gets the added protection of storage box and lid.

I should hold a Storage Wars type competition. There's probably a gold mine in there I've forgotten about. Or at least a couple accidental pelts.

It's almost certainly a bad idea to take a bunch of pills because you got bored, even if they are only vitamins.

Lack of vitamin D can cause depression.

If *your* depression is caused by a lack of vitamin D, then taking supplements to get you back to the correct level could well help.

Taking more than this amount WILL NOT HELP.

And it could cause further problems, especially with kidneys and liver and such like. Stick to the recommended dosages.

Take care. If things aren't improving, see your doctor. No, see your doctor anyway. Don't try to guess the underlying cause of depression. Find out properly.
