Barry and Ben, the floor installers are here and making changes in the kitchen!
the fridge and stove are in the vestibule. the old lino is coming up!
here are some articles that Ben found when he moved the fridge:
Before they leave they are also going to move my piano away from the wall so i can paint back there! i've been wanting to paint that wall, but couldn't bring myself to ask my friends to move the piano. it's a player, and just too heavy. but i will be more comfortable asking them to move it only once, back against the wall.
more to come!
the gents pulled the piano away from the wall and discovered
a lost set of house keys. today is full of found stuff already.here are some progress shots:
the piano away from the wall. i've started taping off the mouldings.
me behind the piano! haven't been back here for almost 7 years.
floor progress shot: the wood flooring laid down, awaiting the application of cement.
and now i'm running out of energy. and masking tape. as long as i get a chunk out of this task this morning i'll be confident i can get it all finished, and piano back in place by sunday afternoon. oof. now i have to move a cabinet of cds to get to part of the piano wall. need food...
DONE!
I'll take a clearer pic of the tile after i've eaten. i thought they'd be done about an hour ago, so i hadn't planned to be w/o lunch. it's lovely! they did a terrific job! oh man...hungry...more when i come back.
