And so it begins!!!

Here you see the floor that I have been talking about replacing and today Sweetman said the only way we are going to get this started is to just start. Profound words I think.. You can see how it is worn and this isn't the worst part just a small portion. I'm sure when it was new it was very beautiful.

We enlisted the help of a good friend who offered to help & has had some past experience with this type of floor. He was extremely helpful & his mucsle work was very appreciated.

It took the better part of the morning just getting all the stuff out of the way but once furniture & other stuff, (we have to much stuff) was out of the way it only took about 4 hours to get the old floor ripped up. We just pitched the old stuff out the slider & I halled it to a big burn pile out in the back yard. It made a great bon fire.

I always like to see men on their knees, isn't this just a sight for sore eyes??

Now this one is pretty good to, here we have a major discussion going on about how to get to the hard spots like behind the frig and stove, & as you can see we now have the input of another male expert. It takes some figurin on just how to get this done, don't ya know. Me, now I was doin some of the supervising but for some reason they weren't paying much attention to me. Sigh!!!

I'm just glad that the whole process went fairly well today with no injuries just a few sore muscles & very worn out people.
