After almost a year of preparation and hard work (studying for the GRE, researching programs, writing essays, doing a research project for my writing sample, contacting professors, filling out apps), I AM DONE! Now to sit back and anxiously wait for the results. I applied to 10 programs; I only really need to get into one, right? Fingers crossed…

I have a budget now, and all my credit cards are either paid off or switched to low-interest accounts. Not perfect, but much better.
It’s so close to done. The kitchen, stairwells and landing are painted, and so is the front door and frame, which were some of my last “big” projects. Still lots of trim work and other little things to do, but I’m almost tempted to mark this one done.
