"If you don't know where you are going, any road will get you there." Lewis Carroll



I am going to do a 2 part post here...actually, I am going to post quickly and then run downstairs, snap some photos of my ALMOST completed floors, and then put them on here. YAY!!!
Okay, here they are! He has a few more strips to put in the hall and he is done! Then I have a lot of cleaning and reorganizing to do.
Mr. S. is going to need a vacation after his vacation. I feel bad that all he did was work on his vacation, but the floors look wonderful. Although he dripped sweat, cursed, and pondered over the floors more than he wanted to, he did a great job. I am pretty proud of him! I thought there were some moments he was going to kill me for wanting to put these floors down, but I think he got over it. Haha!

I bought and put together a new entertainment center this weekend. I also went to Pier 1 to look for some decorating items. I found 'em, too. I loved almost everything I saw, although my pocketbook did NOT. I can't afford a lot of items that are higher priced. I can afford a lot of lower priced items though...I hate decorating due to the money restraint, but I love it because it is fun. I just need some more money.


Alright, I am going to post this and run to get some photos. I shall post them soon!!!

Check out my wonderful blogworld friend, My Life with Boys...she is giving away a $20 gift card to Target!!

I love the floors! Your husband did great! I always felt guilty too, bc when we lived in c-town the husband took two vacations, one to side the house and one to roof the house...we just have some tough men!

The floors look awesome! You are going to feel so happy when you go back to school, knowing all you accomplished around the house this summer.

I on the other hand have been a bit more of a slacker, but I blame it on the three boys I have the drive everywhere! ;)
