16. I'm sure the remodeling job was not cheap

Even if I wasn't disabled I would have wanted that plastic bathtub to go. It was plain ugly and small and fairly useless.

It took me awhile to find the right way to clean the tile but I have that figured out now as well as mold control (believe it or not).

I try my best to keep the house up by myself. It is a lot of painful work for me to do it but I STILL MANAGE TO DO IT SOME HOW!

After moving in I had more remodeling done on the bathroom which included having a new vanity, sink, mirror and toilet installed.

It isn't cheap being sick!
