Speaking Of Everything…

What’s Next?

Big news on the home front. Finally submitted a draft of my Master thesis, or capstone, on the healthcare reform fight… I’m not really thrilled with the product, I just want it completed. Now I am waiting for comments from my professor and I will make the appropriate revisions once I get it back.

Then I am going to take that scholarly piece of work and turn it into some fun reading!

I’ ll post it when it’s complete.

Now it’s time to fix the house: repair the doorbell, repoint the rear brick walls, waterseal the back deck, strip the front porch, repair broken planks, paint the front porch (Simultaneously helping Whitney prep the basement to be her apartment!) – then I’ll repair and seal the stone tile on the kitchen floor. Install the hardware on the kitchen cabinets, lower the gas pipe under the stove so the stove can sit flush to the wall. Make a backsplash from the sink to the wall past the stove. Make a trap door for the attic entry. Replace the clawfoot tub and pedestal sink in the bathroom – this hurts because the are very pretty to look at but impractical for me and Fran to use. Hard to get in and out of the tub – sink has separate hot and cold faucets and no storage beneath the sink. Exchange for standard tub and vanity sink with maybe one concession to fashion – maybe I’ll get a vessel sink.

Oh yeah. I’ll also be applying for jobs.
