End of week one

Finishing up the end of week one of this episode of 'this fairly new but looking like an old house in the basement house'. This week, we...

-removed the first four feet of drywall
-removed shag carpet and pad
-removed baseboard and edging around doorways
-removed insulation
-swept, vacuumed, rinsed with bleach, repeat on smaller of two rooms
-defeated many spiders and mosquitos
-have the pictures to prove it

Still need to go over today and move all of the stuff left behind into the garage, except really nasty stuff, which will go away. I'm pretty sure... oh!

-removed old yucky couch from hell
-cleaned futon frame

Plus lots of little things. Today, I'm hoping we can finish the basement in a couple of hours and then tidy up the rest of the house (which is in fairly good shape) so that when the appraiser comes tomorrow everything is in it's happy place.

Still addicted to Mafia Wars.
Started next chapter of Unforgettable.
