The apartment is amazingly in pretty good shape since it hasn't been lived in in 5 years. Here are the before pics and we probably won't get much done up here till spring. It's pretty good size.
We have four apartments in our building. We redid all of them 18 years ago... I think it's about that time again. This time will be funner and I won't be so conservative. Make the project fun and you'll get through it easier. Have fun and good luck!
when i'm not creating art, i'm riding my bike, working in my flowers, or junking looking for great finds. ,shaking my head at how screwed up this country gets every day. "WHAT'S GOING ON"?

Surface Hunting by Claudia Emerson
You always washed artifacts at the sink, your back to the room, to me, to the mud you tracked in from whatever neighbors's field had just been plowed. Spearpoints, birdpoints, awls and leaf shaped blades surfaced from the turned earth as though from beneath some thicker water you tried to see into. You never tired, you told me, of the tangible past you could admire, turn over and over in your hand-the first to touch it since the dead one that had worked the stone. You linedbookshelves and end tables with them; obsidian, quarts, flint, they measured the hours you'd spent with your head down, searching for others, and also the prized hours of my own solitude-collected, prized, saved alongside those artifacts that had been for so long lost.
