All in one day





Oh yes, the white linoleum is gone!! You wouldn't have believed how fast they installed this floor. It looks like it was giant chunks of floor already pieced together and installed, but we're talking individual pieces here all hammered into place and cut. It's amazing. Only the piece where the fridge is going has a coat of polyurethane on it, but it's already looking beyond fabulous. It's really pretty incredible. We're so happy with how it looks, and it's not even done yet.
Now, the unanticipated dirt and debris in the laundry room area is feeling worth it. (It didn't occur to me that when you rip floors out down to the planks, which have pretty decent gaps between them and have lots of dirt and stuff in there that it will all end up in the area underneath. Who knew? But bless his heart Travis did all he could to minimize the crud.) So, we're now forced to clean it all out. Clearly a blessing in disguise, but weren't planning on having to do it. Anyone looking for some additional clutter to add to their homes???
