You only realize you need a different glue, after the hardware store is closed. You make mistakes, and the places you buy things from make mistakes. And even when everything goes right...yeah, it's a lot of memories, right!? I love it! You just have to go into it knowing this is how it goes. Sounds like you know. But going without a kitchen for a month. That should be interesting! Good luck!<br />Rebecca<br />RootsAndWingsCo.blogspot.comRootsAndWingsCohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17941828347260961696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5554690849426824792.post-84531864820875495692009-04-27T09:30:00.000-05:002009-04-27T09:30:00.000-05:00Thanks for stopping by and leaving me a comment. ...Thanks for stopping by and leaving me a comment.

I'm not laughing at you, I'm laughing with you! : )<br /><br />Yes, I have a feeling we're going to have to rent some kind of monstrosity to get our flooring up out of our kitchen. Ugh. <br /><br />I started to say "Ask Kat about her remodel of her old house" but I see she already mentioned it.

I feel Camo Man's pain. The knuckleheads who put down the vinyl floor used some kind of industrial/military grade adhesive, and we literally could not pull it off the floor. We ended up buying plywood and putting it down over the vinyl. My floor is now VERY sturdy!<br /><br />It will be worth it in the end - as long as you don't end up in the funny farm. :)<br /><br />LisaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5554690849426824792.post-25380429774945237792009-04-23T06:48:00.000-05:002009-04-23T06:48:00.000-05:00Okay.

That very last comment about Camo Man working and looking at you like what the **** are you doing on the computer made me laugh out loud. <br /><br />I'm still feeling your pain. We've done two home remodels. We live on the edge that way ;) I've told you about dirty dishes in the bathtub, but that picture of all your furniture crammed into one area reminded of the first house remodel we did in which we did the whole house all at once. So, at one point, as we were living on concrete, my bedroom furniture was set up in the kitchen. Came in real handy if you wanted a late night snack :) Oh, and you are right about the money pit thing. It ALWAYS costs more than what you had planned!<br /><br />Just keep telling yourself, "This, too, shall pass..."Kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00420323636035062088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5554690849426824792.post-82365347375013877172009-04-23T05:04:00.000-05:002009-04-23T05:04:00.000-05:00Oh good lord woman.. pg-13, ibs and china.. for so...Oh good lord woman.. pg-13, ibs and china.. for some reason these three things just don't belong together. It's time to rethink things here. Camo man can hold his horses for a few weeks.. the ibs can't.. and the china is good under the bed for now but needs to be used and often not the other way around with camo man. <br /><br />Get that dish rack set up in the tub my dear and a bucket of cleaning supplies to wash em in. <br /><br />New stove top = new dishwasher.. yippie skippie doo.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5554690849426824792.post-86437694493575250482009-04-23T01:42:00.000-05:002009-04-23T01:42:00.000-05:00Hey Missy,

WE had real mexican tile and we wanted to replace it with travertine marble and I told Scott that he could save us about 1,800 dollars by taking up the old floor. Easy Peasy right, just take a sledge hammer and break it all up and sweep it out the door I told him! WRONG..... I was out of town and he called me and said that it had been 5 hours and he only had gotten up about an inch of tile. Long story short, it took 3 professionals 1 week with electric hand jack hammers on their knees to get the tile up.. and we had a lot of it. Then they had to put a concrete leveler down because some of the concrete came up and that had to dry for another day then they could start installing the floor. I thought it would take about 4 days and $3,000 including tile and installation but it really took 2 weeks and $6,500 for my floor! So I truly feel your pain. I need my wood floor refinished right now and I haven't had that done yet simply because I'm not ready to go through all that CRAP!!!My Creatively Vintage Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17375866680288397004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5554690849426824792.post-37048813443412419722009-04-23T00:20:00.000-05:002009-04-23T00:20:00.000-05:00You're cracking me up.
