Floors

Went to visit my Aunt Betty friday and took her the rocking chair I had gotten her.  My dad thought she wouldn't like it so he was surprised when she did.  I love my Aunt Betty she is such a cool lady.  She lives about an hour away so I don't see her as often as I would like.

I had put money back to by the floor with and instead of not putting enough back I had some left over!  WOO HOO So I decided to get some rugs to spruce the floors up with -- and maybe save some wear and tear on them at the same time. So while visiting aunty I shopped at a store they have that we don't.  I found a really nice rug for the hall but the ones that I wanted for my livingroom was just too much money.  I was really bummed. 

After we got back to town I discovered something wrong with my cell phone so we went to get that fixed.  And because the place was in the same block as Lowe's I thought well why not look at thier rugs.  My dad rolled his eyes as he was thinking they would be way to expensive.  Well we were both surprised.  I have the most beautiful rug that was in my price range!!!!!  The only bad thing is that they have to order it so it will be a couple of weeks before I get it.  Can hardly wait.

I even picked up a rug for the bathroom while at Lowe's!  I am so happy.  My livingroom and hallway have been painted, new floors put down, and now some really nice rugs!!  Can it get better?

I still have carpet in my 2 bedrooms but I want to take it up later this summer.  They won't get new flooring though.  Flooring ain't cheap -- in case you didn't know.  But the carpets are so nasty.  My cats have thrown up on them and I can't get the stains out, so up they must come. 

I have seen where people painted their floors but I am not so sure about that yet.  I will have to see what they look like and then decide on what to do.  Whatever I do it can't cost too much.
