So Nicole moved everything out of her room and started to pull up the carpet. I finished removing the carpet when I got home. The floors underneath look to be in pretty good shape overall. We still need to remove the carpet tack strips though. Hopefully tonight I’ll get to the ceiling light in the […]

On Friday afternoon a wet spot was on the floor of the computer room. At first it was thought that one of the dogs had peed in protest since the other one did so earlier in the day.
