Hardwood Floors




They are a beautiful thing.  BUT, not when they buckle from a leaky pipe that doesn't get fixed for two weeks.
And then they need to be replaced. 
That's whats happening now in our dining room, down the hallway going into the boys bedroom and going into the living room area.  I'm in the master bedroom with Connor hiding out till they are done.  Or at least for a little while.  Connor's finally napping.. thank goodness. He was getting anxious for sleep and wearing me down.
He's actually sleeping through the pounding and the saw being used.  It's Loud too!
They had gone through and picked the boards out with nice speed, but saw that the plywood was still wet underneath and had to figure how much they would need.  they picked it up and came back.  next thing I know I get this instant message from my hubby.
Christine  says:
what's doin out there?
Hubby says:
uummmm well don't use the bathroom
Hubby says:
not sure how much water was just shut off
Hubby says:
but we sprung a leak
Christine  says:
did they cut into something or was it still leaking from before and that's why the floor was still wet?
Hubby says:
not sure
Christine  says:
oy
Hubby says:
I just heard to spurting and panicked voices
sooooo this may tun into a longer project
Hubby says:
sigh
Christine  says:
damn. can't even hide at Gary's for a while either.
Hubby says:
well we'll see how it goes
((Gary is my brother in law and they are doing major home renovations at the moment too.  I mean gutted house and all.))

Hope they can get enough done before we have to pick up Glen from day care at 3pm.  Or we might be heading over to Chuck e  cheese or something. 
Will post pics a little later.  They are still working on the floor and there's 2 hours to go till we get rug rat number 1.   Hope they can finish most of it by then.
