today is a beautiful sunny day in Ct and what do i do? i decide its the day to rip out my stinky living room carpet!
Connie are you lurking and reading out there?
sooooo piccture this----- puppy training, original carpet of a 20+ condo, kids in and out, beige carpet which now looks kinda grey,
its time to get rid of it.
one of my neighbors husband is going to put in a wood look laminate floor for me. 2 weeks ago I bought the flooring on sale and saved an unbelieveable amount. 5 years ago i had laminate put in my dining and kitchen it looks lovely and is very durable with the animals. it cost me $1400 i don t'have $1400 to have it put into the living room but ever single day i come into the room i crinkge it is so ugly. and no matter how many times i shampoo it with a extremly deep cleaning steam carpet cleaner it still stinks. i don't like to excesize on it cause it smells and feels nasty too. i've even had it professionally done still nasty. i can not stand it anymore.
so my neighbors husband offered to replace it he's done his own and it loosk wonderful! he's only ccharging me $100!!!!!!! it cost me $167 for the flooring!!!!! Am i thrilled??? DUH!
I'm going to give him more but i didn't want him tearing up the nasty stuff thats there so I said I'd do that. I got half of it up today. hauled it to the dump.
I feel so empowered with strength!
wonder woman!
the last part of it this wonder woman was tiring out fast. the LBS decided to say hey you need to take a break so i had lunch took the junk to the dump and called it a day. next week i'll do the other half of the living room then my neighbor can come in and put it in for me.
I'm so thrilled you just can not belive it.
this week at work i won 4 tickets on the fast ferry to marthas vineyard for selling. my mom and sister are coming down from NH in september so my mom can go she's not been there inover 30 years and was thrilled that i asked if she'd like to come.
i think august is going to be a fantastic month!
I love you all.
please take care and god bless, pam

Doesn't it feel great to do your own work?  You would not believe how much I miss that.  I miss it so much that I'm willing to risk my life having surgery to be able to do it again. 

I think you are going to have a wonderfully fabulous month!
