The carpet is GONE!! [View all]

The kids wouldn't let me do much. I guess they figured I contributed enough by tearing out the bedroom hallway carpet.

The rooms look SO much bigger. There's still a LOT of work to do but I'm in no big hurry. Meanwhile, the kidcats are beyond confused.

I'm exhausted and plan on going to bed very early. Tomorrow I start looking for some suitable area rugs.
