I have mopped the kitchen and dining room. Yea, me! Looking forward to a bonus or tax refund or something, so we can get Sr. Hernandez the Tile Virtuoso over to give us an estimate on a new kitchen floor. Once I decide to replace something, living with the obsolete version irritates me!
Ohyah. BOY! Do I know THAT feeling...like my phone and tether. Waiting for something like that is not one of my strong suits, espicially when I could be saving money in the long run by spending some extra now. *sigh*
Ohwell. My kitchen and bathroom take about 15 minutes to mop both floors. How sad...part of that is walking through the apartment, hoping I don’t meet myself on the way...
And could not like cats for being so possessive of Their Things?
The only people who “don’t like” cats are the people with something to hide.
Dogs love anyone who pets them. Cats are a little more discerning.

Mopping my floors would be quick and easy, if I didn’t have to move all the people and furniture.
At least it’s done, and I put my piano back in the dining room. It’s been gone since we got the Christmas tree.
I *love* your outlook—gimme lemon meringue pie any day! (Chocolate cream is nice, too.)
We could use a tile virtuoso. When we moved here, we laid the tile ourselves. The earth shifts, so the grout has cracked in a few places. I’ve attempted to repair it, but after it dries, I vacuum it up again. On the bright side, except for the places where the grout came up, the entire house is cat- and dog-proof w/respect to messes and cleanup.
Chocolade is a life force!
Lemon pie is “something else!”
Going to bed, now...things that need ‘splainin’, Lucy, will have to await the dawning....
I are a victim of my surroundings...
Until The Morrow, then...

At a forty percent conversion ratio. Awesome efficiency.
Try to make sure the First Lady's Food Nazis don't replace your inadequately proven capability with chicken nuggets.
We’ve installed vinyl in the past, although not in this house, but I don’t think I’d like to get involved with tiling, especially when we can get a brilliant professional job, and help a friend, by hiring Mr. Hernandez. The construction industry here has been the pits for about the last 3 years, and he and his wife are both working cleaning jobs to pay the bills.
In his spare time, he tiles things in their house. The dining room and kitchen are spectacular.
Help my dubble posting/lifeasiknowit!
Off to bed I am! Bless me and the Horse I rode in on!!!
Gah.
Yoiks.
Life is not a fairyland...I an DOOMED!!!
We had to lock and bolt the back door after the third hoomin fell victim to Jake’s mind-control efforts. Jake got to dig in the garden a bit before Tom realized he’d let him out!
Mr. McGoo, and Foghorn Leghorn were mine.
I installed sheet vinyl in the 60’s. Tile is more difficult and time consuming, but we saved $6K by doing it ourselves. (We had almost blown our wad at the time.) It actually looks professional, but only because my husband measured, cut and spaced everything.
I get Zorro and Foghorn Leghorn, but Mr. McGoo? I should have applied myself more to cartoons, because—well, Mr. McGoo? Pleez elucidate?
