Despite the fact that I still have the sniffles and an occasional cough, I apparently am over the cold. I came home tonight with energy to quite literally burn. I suspect it's a result of the diet. I hope it lasts, but at the same time, I find myself a bit restless.
I've been eyeing my living room and dining room carpet and I've been meaning to clean it. So, tonight, I shoved all the living room furniture into the dining room, vacuumed and then used the carpet cleaner on it. I cleaned up a lot of dirt, but the carpet still looks pretty rough in a few spots. I'd really like to do something else with the floor. I haven't been able to pull up a corner to find out whether it's a hardwood floor underneath or something else. I'm afraid the carpet is glued down. That's what was going on in the porch and it was nasty to sand up. If there isn't a hardwood floor underneath, I'd like to put down a laminate floor. Unfortunately, I can't afford either one right now. So, I'll clean the carpet in both rooms and I'll be put down new area rugs.
Joey wasn't too crazy about my endeavors. Apparently, she isn't afraid to get labeled with the stereotype as the vacuum cleaner frightened dog.
