So, the porch project is underway. We obtained the now necessary permit, and Rich finishes the demo on the old stuff today, and starts digging holes for foundation work tomorrow. Turns out that while the town Building Inspector is extrememly hard to get in touch with, he is a decent and reasonable fellow. Yay.
Rich's foot infection is mostly gone (stepped on a nail during cleanout last week).
Getting the 'scary potty' cleaned up some more today (that's the ever-ongoing downstairs bathroom renovation project). Cleaned out the tub and jets, so that it's useable again. Sorry cats, no more lounging on the windowsill over the tub.
The basement and back drive are now de-rednecked, and the dumpster is nearly full.
Threw away some stuff from storage areas and general-around-the-house corners. Still seems cluttered, but getting better.
Restored my 'office area' to a more normal and functional state by moving Richard's desk finally (we all share the office, it's the largest room in the downstairs area, but a significant portion of it is mine).
So, having Rich home for a while has been productive.
