The Kitchen


That is the listing picture of the kitchen. It is the one I pointed out the smashed stove top and carpeted floor. 

The day I bought the house Gus took off of work in the afternoon and started tearing out the carpet in the house. This is the only room I got picture of while the carpet was being removed. Due to my allergies I was unable to help with the project but Gus did get a friend or two to help him.

When the 4 loads of carpet were taken to the dump we found out that all together the carpet weighed a little over ONE TON. You read that right. One ton of carpet. This is most of the pile.


Back to the kitchen though. The carpet in the kitchen was glued down. Oh joy.


We sanded down the Kitchen and Breakfast Nook floors. Unfortunately the Kitchen floor was not salvageable. The Breakfast Nook floor was, but that is another story. 


Here Gus is vacuuming after sanding.

We decided to lay laminate flooring in the kitchen. We found some on sale at Menards.



So here is the finished product...sort of. I have not painted the kitchen yet. I would like to do so this summer. We will see if I have enough time with all the other projects going on.





Looks pretty snazzy, doesn't it?
