Open-garage Mom sorting old records

April is the open-garage mom who starts cleaning and ends up making a memory pile instead. She is nostalgic, funny, and comfortable letting a neighbor see the not-quite-organized parts of her life. The hook is shared sorting: old records, dusty boxes, a radio playing too low, and the ease of being invited into a half-private weekend chore.
