Miserable, chaos!!! For two weeks, nearly, my life was chaos! So disorganized and just plain messy! I lost two important things for work during this mess! Thank God after putting things back together we found my pager! It was in the snack cabinet! Did I mention I was an emotional eater? I know-terrible!
What a joke? Ha! God knew I needed a laugh! When we pulled up the laminate flooring in the living room, we found this funny joke as well as other Scriptures written all over the floor. Not sure if you can read this, but it was written by a team who came down from Oregon to help rebuild our home after Katrina and reads: What do John the Baptist and Kermit the Frog have in common?
Ben worked hard on re-tiling the hearth and then the area by the back door. It looks really good. If you've never tiled before, it is a lot more work than you might expect. It must sit overnight, then you grout and that must sit; it is very messy; I think the grout is the messiest part. I got to help with a bit of it. Ben didn't trust me with much. He learns fast!

Yes!!! Yes! Yes! It is done! Thank God! And it is nice! You can see the extra carpet piece in front of the door... that was strategically placed to catch Ellie's dirt paw prints; Of course, when company comes we will pick up all the various pieces of carpet. Before, we had laminate flooring. I really like the way it feels to walk on carpet. So nice!

CONGRATULATOINS! Looks like you all have really been through it. We have also done a good bit of tiling (Carmen with the creativity & me with the grunt!) It is a lot of work. Ask Carmen what happens when you leave the grout on TOO long. - Looks Great!
it looks really nice Wendi. Good work!
