Jonathan came down the block to help with the toilet. It works! We had to replace some of the rubber fittings, but it's back in service.
The sink needs some attention. The PVC doesn't fit correctly, so there's a leak between the copper drainpipe in the sink and the PVC plumbing underneath. It's a job for our plumber.
We also emptied the garage and basement. Remember the garage looked like this?
Nick and I dragged all the stuff to the curb, and put up some "curb alerts" on Craigslist. EVERYthing except that big pile of wood disappeared. Washer, drier, queen boxspring, antenna, cast iron pipes, fireplace cover, radiator covers, EVERYthing.
While all of that was happening, Linds, Marge, Meg, Pob and Sue put in about eight hours painting the living room and dining room.
From this angle, you can see all the colors. A tinge of yellow and Casual Blue in the living room, and gray with white in the dining room. That darker blue is the edging tape.
On top of that, we also installed the washer and dryer, but the spigots that go to the washer need replacement. Another task for the plumber.
It's starting to look (and feel) like home!
