Her kitchen floor planks have become lose and need to be secured and mopped. 6. The trees and brush in her yard needs to be cut back. She has lived in her home for 30 years and raised her kids here.

For this project the small bathroom needs painting, Mary wants one wall in the bedroom and one wall in the living room to be painted, Mary had a sample of the paint.
