Sore muscles

[nolawitch58]

Last Thursday while I was downtown at the office then at a writers' group meeting, they pulled up the carpet and removed the upper cabinets and one lower. Friday, we picked up the tile and scraped the popcorn texture off the ceilings. Saturday, nobody could make it. Sunday, I finished shoving everything into the PODs that hadn't already been moved out. The applicances got pushed into the living room. The old vinyl crap got pulled up. The slab got prepped and some of the tile got laid. Yesterday, more of the tile got laid, especially everywhere the new cabinets were being installed. The rest of it gets done today as well as the grouting.

Throughout the process, I've been picking up and sweeping, trying to keep the workspace as tidy as possible. My muscles are sore from the effort.

The weather said it's supposed to rain tomorrow. I hope it's not too bad. The kitchen place is supposed to be doing the installation tomorrow and Thursday. I'll be taking a few pictures in progress tonight.

So by tomorrow you're going to LOVE that floor. It makes such a difference. Get out your whip to make sure no one cracks any of it while they're moving appliances back in and installing cabinets (that would suck canal water).

Looking forward to pictures.

That's exactly how it feels! Like in your icon, pressing one's nose to the window and wanting to see every detail ;-)!

I'm sure it's going to be quite fantastic.
(As long as they don't break anything, true....)

Both of my whips are somewhere in the PODs. I'll be helping move the appliance back into place. I helped move them into the living room. I'll make sure it's slow and steady. I'm glad I bought a bottle of 1000 ibuprofen tablets.
