Starting in on This Old House

The refrigerator came out of this cubby today, revealing some really
old-fashioned plaster and lath under the staircase.
The list of things to do at Jennifer's new house got just a bit shorter today.
Jennifer's fixer-upper in Dundas, a suburb of Northfield, has a long way to go before Jennifer will be satisfied with it. She's moved in, now the first thing to do is to separate her living quarters from the main project area. Then the real fun will begin.
We joined Jennifer on her day off for a day of putting up shelves, hooks, doors and insulation. It was fun; Jennifer is an organizational aficionado, so anything made available to keep things straight and neat will be used assiduously. We have no idea where this trait comes from, but she's got an idea for storing everything.
This Old House has great potential. . . wonder if HGTV is looking for a project?
Later in the afternoon Marcelline joined in for a few laughs and some big plans.
