ninja in her favorite spot

floors!

my floors are in!

bye-bye blue stuff

as you can see, i'm nearly done scraping off all the underlay - only two small sections left to go! with that done, all i'll have left to do is getting rid of that piece under the tv, do a little vacuuming and maybe a little mopping (there's a lot of mud under the underlay!!!) and it'll be like there was never carpet in here.

carpetless

praise the lord!!!

As it turns out, the carpet underlay in my diningroom/livingroom is only glued down around the perimetre - that means it's going to be a LOT easier than I thought to pull up. The sad part is that I had to send Noodle to live with my parents, as she seemed pretty determined to eat some paint chips and liked rolling around on the tack strips. I was worried about her. I miss the little Noodle. She'll be back.

lazy bones

here are some pics of noodle sleeping in the afternoon. that's right, i said sleeping. she's not playing or rolling around on the ground - she actually sleeps belly-up.
