Oh My - What Did I Get Us Into?





Monday we are having a new floor installed ... and in spirit of saving LOTS of money (not time mind you..) we are tearing up the old floor ourselves. Each night after the kids go to bed Jeff and I tear up and scape another section of this most glorious floor. TWO layers of carpet (don't you love the wood floor pattern carpet? - what is that 60's? 70's?), and an old glued down padding that just refuses to come up. Wonderful. This is how we will be spending New Years Eve, New Years Day...and quite possibly the entire weekend. I love my old house, I love my old house, I love my old house....really I do!

WOW...is that really "wood-carpet". I didn't even know that stuff existed!

Good luck with the home renovation. I hate the feeling when you house is tore up, especially the kitchen. Just keep thinking of how great it will look when it's done!

I thought you had discovered some wood floors underneath...I didn't realize it was carpet! It is well worth the money you are saving!! I can't wait to see the finished product!
