It is new floors here. We have the wood, We have the under pad, and we are taking
off the baseboards now. I think I finish my contract this week and the floors
are my new full time job. Already tiled the kitchen, and 2 bathrooms. I am tired
just thinking about it. Friday and Sat, we had a carpet pull up party, no showed
up to help. Nobody loves me, booooow hhoooooo. <g> I want a new laptop, wife says
I have no need for one. Go figure.
