Guess who, after spending the majority of her day doing laundry & vacuuming tufts of dog hair the size of tumbleweeds, decides it would be a swell idea to wash her car at 8 pm?
Yep. ME!
Cuz that's how I roll.
(And no.....I was not drunk.)
Guess who wakes up on a Saturday morning; knowing that half her day is already blown with baseball, but still says Yes when asked this question by her husband: Hey, you wanna tear out all the carpet in the basement today?
Um.....that'd be me.
Seven hours later we have: absolutely NO flooring surface in the basement save the original 4x4 white linoleum tiles that are so frail from being glued to the cement foundation for the last 40 years, a mild sneeze will send the nearest tile airborne! On the upside, our handiwork left us with freshly scrubbed walls & windows and I managed to wash and re-hang the drapes.
Did I mention we have no flooring?
Cuz that's how we roll!
And in case there was any doubt in your mind: Guess who starts her Sunday off with a trip to the dump?
Holla! M-E!
We'd packed our truck bed with carpet & padding the night before, but for good measure we added the two HUGE arborvitae bushes that Mark had cut down last week. Once beautiful and gracefully flanking our driveway, these poor bastards never recovered from the last ice storm and were quickly put out of their misery courtesy of Poulan. With our bevy of garbage securely tied down; we were off!
To the dump.
Looking a lot like the Clampetts.
Cuz that's how we roll.
Hindsight is 20/20. Here's what I know:
1) While this weekend was highly productive, I am confident it would have been more enjoyable if I'd been drinking. Of course, then it probably wouldn't have been so productive........
Vicious circle......!
2) Perhaps one should have new flooring in the wings before tearing out one's old flooring......?
Note to self.
