stuff on the floor.....

You never realize just how much stuff you have on your floors at home until you have to remove all the stuff to have new carpet installed. Then you have to find temporary quarters for your stuff.

We ordered carpet from Home Depot about 3 weeks ago. A week later, we were told that it was on back-order, and that we probably shouldn't expect it to be installed until about the middle of February. Last night, as we were watching American Idol, a guy from Home Depot called to tell us that they would call us Friday morning between 7 AM and 9 AM to tell us when they would be by Friday to do the installation. So that means a vacation day for me tomorrow.....

The bride started painting the trim-work in the den and dining room yesterday. When she found out about Friday, she realized she'd have to finish it up today. I don't envy her, because I detest having to paint.

As soon as I get home tonight, we'll start attacking the floors, entertainment center and various other items. The bride will have to do something with her Snow Babies display, and that won't be alot of fun. My biggest job will be removing all the electronic stuff out of the entertainment center and finding a place for it. The BEST part is that after the carpet is installed, we get to move it all again. I guess there are worse problems to have, huh?

Should be a relatively late night tonight. Anyone who's bored is welcome to come by and help. But you'd have to be pretty bored to volunteer to move furniture.....
