This week...

I gotta say this week was a pretty busy one.

On Tuesday night poor Logan slipped in the shower and put his back through the wall - had to call the landlord over to look at it. The landlord came on Thursday and said we should fix it and take it off of our rent. YEAH!!!!!!
So I asked them if I could rip out the carpet in the other two bathrooms and replace it with vinyl tile and add in an exhaust fan for them too. After they talked about it they decided that Terry and I should go ahead and do it... they just wanted to see the tile I picked first! YEAHYEAHYEAH!!!

Thursday, Terry also had to leave for the Dells for a weekend of shooting darts in a tournament. He was the cheerleader on Thursday - the guy he went with didn't do too hot. Friday, they shot doubles and did a little bit better - no cash payout though. Then on Saturday, him and 3 guys shot team - they tied for 2nd with four other teams. Unfortunately, they were eliminated because they didn't do as well on one game when it came down to it all....grrrrrr so frustrating. I'm just glad the guys got to do a little better this time than last year. Next year it's in the Dells again and I'm hoping that we can use it as a family getaway, then the boys and I can spend some time at the waterparks while Terry's shooting.

Friday, I went to lunch with my Grams and cousin's wife, Jenny. We went for Chinese at a nearby restaurant and had some nice conversation. This is the first time they've been to the "new" house. I was sad to see them go, but glad they got to come.

Saturday morning I went to the home improvement shop, Menards, and picked up the vinyl tile and a few other things before I can start my new project. I'm soooooooooo excited!!!!!!

Sunday, today, I started ripping up the carpet - - - YUCKY!!!!!!!!! I got the carpet & pad ripped out, all the staples up and the carpet tacking out. Terry came in and pulled out the yucky, smelly toilet. I vacuumed the floor to make sure I got everything. I sprayed down the shower with some bubbly, cleaning stuff, and then scrubbed the floor with bleach water. The floor is drying as we speak.

Tomorrow morning I'm going to head into the bathroom and paint the floor with some primer that contains mold & mildew killer and preventative in it. I hope that it will be dry by the afternoon so I can get started with laying the tile. Tomorrow after Terry gets home he can recaulk the shower to prevent future leaks and reinstall the toilet.

Next weekend we'll be doing the other bathroom...well the 2nd bathroom, the one with the hole in the shower will have to wait until payday. Plus we have to figure out what we can do about it.


I can't wait!!!!!!!!! I'll have to see what I can do about getting pics posted on all of this "construction"!! I totally forgot to do a before shot of our bathroom, but will be taking during and after ones from now on!
