I can’t find a post about it but I tore the carpet out of the second bedroom around 2006. I guess I should start by saying that upon moving into our house, I did not like the carpet. But we are not home improvement people and I imagined there would come a day when we would do all the floors.
Except to do all the floors you basically have to move out of your house and there is no scenario for that happening.
Last year we pulled up the carpet in the bedroom when we got the new bed.
I decided I wanted to rip out the last of the carpet covering the hardwood floor and some wonderful handymen did that for us over the weekend. The rest of the house was added on or didn’t have hardwood. Can you believe this stuff was covered up?
On Sunday I went over the whole thing with the vacuum and picked up all the grit and dust in the corners. I pulled out any remaining staples and then I washed it down with Murphy’s Oil Soap. Pretty nice, huh?
Now I think we can move everything onto the hardwood and replace the rest of the floor. I don’t know. I would love to do a remodel project but not sure we have the money or the capacity to deal with something like that.
Definitely not worrying about it now.
Check out this jacked skunk. Doesn’t it seem huge? But with a tiny head? Do all skunks look like that? It seems really giant to me. I’m not sure where it lives. I wish I knew just to avoid inadvertently running into it.
