That's where I spent most of the day today. Terry (we'll call him my contractor...ha ha) called this morning and gave me 3 jobs - clean out the bathroom sink's drain, clean out the cabinet under the sink (so we can take it out), and work on the linoleum in the kitchen. I also needed to hit Lowes and pick up those earplugs, the eye protection, etc.
Did I mention that the dishwasher is also broken? So, this is bad...I ran the dishwasher a week ago and when I went down to swap out some laundry, there was water dripping in the basement. WHAT?! Yes, the dishwasher is broken. So, while at Lowes, I checked out the dishwasher selection. Wahoo.
I might also add to this mayhem that my car is "in the shop"! UGH. Isn't this nice? I just don't even feel like typing about that whole ordeal.
By the time Terry got here this afternoon, I had nearly all of the top layer of linoleum up. I guess this stuff sometimes just rolls up...of course it does. Not on my kitchen floor. I literally was on my hands and knees with a spackle thingie mabobber and a hammer. My hands/arms were so tired that I was tapping the spackle thingie mabobber with a hammer, to push it under the linoleum and lift it up.
Terry worked on the tile for a bit and had to head home. I worked till I just couldn't do any more on that floor, and called it a night. I will finish it tomorrow!
