"Beauty is everlasting And dust is for a time." Marianne Moore

My house is covered in dust. And by covered, I mean COVERED. We are removing the tile from the kitchen. Maybe I should rephrase that...Mr. S. is removing the tile from the kitchen. Removing ceramic tile is the messiest, dirtiest thing that I have ever seen. I am having a meltdown because my house is a dusty mess. I can't deal with it. Today he is sanding the grout off the floor...tonight I might try to mop up the mess...and tomorrow I am hoping to lay the new floors! I just bought the new floors today, too!!!! WOO!

I will post pics of the mess. I took pics yesterday and I will today, too. The camera is down in the dusty living room. I am upstairs where there is less dust. I'm sure I need to go down and sweep something. That's been my job...clean-up crew.

Oh, and it's hot...and the AC is off because we opened the windows for dust. Awesome, right? Yes, the thermostat in the house says it is 78 in here. Way too hot for my liking. I did get a Vanilla Diet Dr. Pepper from Sonic, so life is a little better. Though there is a cup over the lid as to avoid dust in it. I know you all are jealous, right?! Haha!

Off to see what I can clean!

You are really going to town on the home improvements this summer. We need to get our butts in gear. Sorry about the dust (and heat). That would drive me crazy. My dad is down at my brothers house helping them take out their old floor and put in ceramic tile.
