Welcome to those who joined our official sign-up for the Fall Cure in Chicago, as well as our Flickr pool members! Your forms gave us good feedback on what you want out of the Cure. (If you'd still like to sign up, it's not too late...the form is below.) You told us you're looking for support, inspiration, thrifty ideas, renter-friendly tips and DIY projects. A lot of you are focused on some major projects and are ready for some down and dirty hard work before the end of The Cure and we are here to support and encourage every step of the way.

I'm on board from MN!
Not sure how my bathroom is a "good" link... it's always seemed pretty awful to me... ^_^

MayaLau -- those murals are gorgeous!
I'm doing a Cure Lite (although I haven't formally "signed up"). I've just blogged my answers to the Cure Interview in a very long blog post at http://serenityathome.blogspot.com/2008/10/at-rides-again.html
I'm on about my sixth cure, some official ones, a couple done on my own, and so I was very interested to discover new things when I did the Interview yet again. Blogging it, rather than just doing it in the spaces in the book, allowed me to be more reflective, and I've realized some things I need to work on that I hadn't thought of before!

Ugh. Just got through making a "repairs" list. Does building a new closet count as a repair? "Before" pictures in all their embarrassing glory to come soon.
First cure. Is it normal to feel overwhelmed so soon?

I don't know if it's too late, or if I messed up with registration... but I'm doing the cure from Toronto, Canada!
