Cleaned out the under-sink area and scrubbed the sink as best I could. It's been like this for years though, so I think the counter-top is just permanently stained a darker color now. I also scrubbed the tub and changed/ubdated the shower head. Next is to vacuum the areas between the walls and the sink. I've also gotten a shredder and have begun the process of getting rid of all the mail, which was very necessary - I found a notice from a local bank that my Dad and I's shared account was being closed. . .a notice that was postmarked on the 12th of August. Better late than never though I suppose. As I said before, thank you guys for always being here and for keeping us all updated, I especially like the pictures. It's nice to know that I'm not alone, and seeing/hearing about you guys' progress inspires me to do a little more every day. Have a great night guys <3
