Come on Spring!!!


Yesterdays weather was fabulous! Everyone is in the Spring mode now. Here is a picture of my view from my home office. In the spring, it's so cool to watch the trees and Lilac bushes start to bloom. Day by day, it's just a smidge more green. I can't wait!
But anyway, here is the view for today.

Soon it will blossom and bloom and I won't be able to see in front of the house anymore until I prune back the lilacs.

Floor update: I gave the house a good stink last night with some varnish stripper and got most of the kitchen and dining room a good start. Unfortunately I didn't get enough stripper and need to go back over some of the edges again, as it dried too fast before I could get to it with the scraper. Tonight is out, as I have some socializing to do... So I'll pick up some more stripper and dig into it first thing in the morning.

The oder from the goop wafted upstairs to my bedroom and I thought maybe that would help us sleep really good last night, but Robb was just afraid we probably wouldn't wake up... I had the bedroom fan on and the bathroom fan and this morning I couldn't smell anything, but it might just be my cold helping me out... The kids weren't affected at all. Good!

This experience with the floor brings back vivid memories of my youth tho. My parents were remodeling our house while we were living in it and we lived with the subfloor in the kitchen and living room for a long time before the carpeting and linoleum were put down. Very ROUGH under our feet.
