Well, I already got the biggest item done, removing the carpet from the second living room, and I have had a blissfully l.azy day, so I know I won't finish this list this weekend, but maybe posting it will help me at least try to hit a few of the items.
carpet out of living room - DONE!!! 5 bags of scraps and 4 rolls of carpet hauled away this morning!
finish decluttering both living rooms - 2 bags gone, one large old ratty suitcase filled
litter boxes - done
declutter around dining room table (stuff "stored" underneath)- 1 bag gone
clean fridge and freezer - nope
work on storage room
dishes - 2 loads done - all used dishes clean!
laundry - 1 load
sweep and mop - nope
tidy front room - did some, didn't finish

Excellent work suedonym!! You've done a lot, but it sounds like you've got lots more to do - I'll be working all day tomorrow, and will be cheering you on! What was under your carpet??? Do you have wood floors??

In most of the house, hard wood floors were under the carpet. Unfortunately there are lots of stains. Someday, I plan to try staining the floor a dark shade, and if that doesn't do the trick, I'll look into refinishing. I'm just afraid the stains are too deep to sand. Maybe I'll end up putting fake wood on top of my hard wood!  In the room I ripped out last night, it is concrete underneath, because the room used to be a garage. So it's not exactly lovely right now, but the carpet was disintegrating and one of my foster kitties who didn't take to the litter box had done a lot of damage too. I see her use the litter box now, so hopefully without the carpeting beckoning her, she won't keep looking fr other places to go. |
