Guess what I just did?
I am crossing off one of my goals I planned to do this Spring/Summer because I just pulled up my carpet in my living room. I'm looking at it and scratching my head wondering "what was I thinkin'?"
No one else has seen it yet and I know hearing their opinions will help mine considerably. I love it in other people's homes. And once they're restored, I'm sure I will be happy, but for now, my back hurts and I feel dusty and feel unsure about my efforts.
One thing I am certain of is this: It is truly rewarding to do something really productive and the satisfaction of being able to say, "I did that".
I can hardly wait to write off the other goals from my list.

ohmygawwwd shaaawn! that looks great! That must have been a lot of work, moving the furniture around and all. Good job!
Don't worry, you'll be happy with it...
no comparrison! i love the wood. bmac
Yay!! You did it! Looks good. Your living room is cool...I'm liking the snack machine? in the corner.
It looks gorgeous, doodle. Really lovely. Now you can rollerskate while you watch television!
I think it looks great already. I applaude your initiative! I want to come over and see it in person!
It really opens up the room and makes it look so much brighter.
looks great, i so want wood floors.
100% better.
But then I hate carpeting and my dream is to buy a house with hard wood floor. If I buy a house with carpeting, the carpeting is going out before I move in and I'll use plywood floor if I have to.
This looks so much nicer and so much easier to clean. I hate using a vacuum cleaner.
yes!!! it lets the light reflect on the floor and it makes it much brighter and open!!! Love it!
Shawn, the wood floors look awesome! I pulled up our carpeting a few summers ago through out the house so I KNOW how much hard work it was.
