well it's about darn time don'tcha think?? i mean -- we have lived here for about 2 1/2 yrs!
so the big changes are to the cat room and to the basement
in the cat room -- the carpet in there was pretty much ruined anyhow (cause of hairballs etc -- yuck!) but earlier this year we had a really big rain and some water came into that room from the corner -- and soaked this big muddy stain into the carpet from the corner about 3 1/2 feet out in a big triangle... also yuck... but then one of the kitties (swine cats!) decided that the wet carpet smelled like "litterbox" so then began using that -- yuck again.
which became the quick prompt for getting the carpet up -- bleaching that corner -- then applying this special paint that masks stains and odors -- letting it all dry -- then Andy installed pergo/laminate/parkay flooring (thin wood flooring) and now it looks fab!! I'm sure he will post pics (too bad we didn't take "before" ones) -- but he just has to replace the baseboards and put the new trim on and the lip of the doorway on
i'll blog bout the basement in a bit -- andy's just pulled up and i'm cooking! :)
