Done! I did the bathroom tile last night and the kitchen today. The bathroom was easy since it had white grout, I just sprayed it would mold/mildew bleach stuff, let it sit for awhile and scrubbed. The kitchen was much more time consuming because I have these terrible matte tiles with dark grey grout. Hands and knees scrubbing, plus moving the breakfast room table and chairs. It’s all done and I feel much better!
Last week I was asked to be part of an Operation Smile mission to Nicaragua. I sent my final paperwork in today and will be leaving for Managua on January 25. 2006.
