“I knew you either had a plan, you were thinkin’ about a plan, or you were thinkin’ about workin’ on a plan.” (Hawk to Spenser, “Spenser for Hire”, probably a paraphrase)

We Have a Plan. Last night, we bug bombed the lanai room (the other room in the back building on the other side of the pool) and bought supplies. Today, we plan to clean the lanai room; straighten the garage and move the extra sofa, desk and empty boxes into the lanai room; move the furniture from the library into the garage; and strip the ceiling and walls (the popcorn crap off the ceiling and the plaster "cavelike" stuff off the walls). On Friday, we'll rent an industrial sander and sand the floor, then put the first coat of paint on the ceiling and walls. Saturday morning, we'll put on the second coat of paint, and then in the evening put the first coat of polyurethane on the floor. On Sunday, we'll put down the second coat of polyurethane (depending on how long it takes to dry), and then run off for a jaunt on the motorcycle to celebrate. Plus, it looks like we'll have some free time on Saturday, so maybe we'll go to the movies or the Santa Ana Zoo or sew or something.

And in there somewhere, I need to make sure I’m writing at least 1K/day, which includes finished Chapter 7 and getting the satin slippers story in the mail by Saturday. Eek!
