Subject: RE: Declutter & Fitness - Clearing Out the House
Is this the sofa you thought was nice looking? Perhaps time to rethink that furnishing choice.

This evening I dug the hole and put the steel post in for the corner of my adjusted fenceline. It is quick-setting concrete and I went out about 30 minutes later and poured some gravel in the hole. I made the footing pretty deep, it'll be covered with about six inches of dirt. The new fence is something that can begin over the weekend. Since the existing fence is going to come down I will scavenge some of the fence post bands and brackets to use on the post I put up today (taking them from the center vs the top or bottom rail of the existing panels). Eventually I'll be digging up the existing steel fence posts and use a sledgehammer to knock off the concrete footer; I did that with some that were removed to extend the driveway and put in the garage, and put them in other places. The one I placed tonight had a very small concrete footer so I left it there and put in new concrete around it.
