My mother came over and she's supposed to get her final (big) payment from selling her business soon. She's going to fix up our houses. She's going to totally redo my bathroom. I'm going to get together all my random stuff and put a lot of it in storage in the basement and the attic over the garage. I'm going to buy new blinds(?) for the kitchen, and the horribly ugly kitchen cabinets will be painted. The back room filled with junk will be cleared out and I will put my bookshelves and art supplies back there so eventually Michael can move his stuff into the second bedroom. We will still try to save money, but there's not a rush to move. We can be comfortable here. And hopefully we will get to go to Disney World reasonably soon:-)
