[quote=MissyGirl]Oh brother! The chaos has begun in my house. My stepdad is unloading 30 boxes of 7' hardwood flooring materials. Just before he picked those up he unloaded 3 new toilets. In ten days the demolition will begin in our kitchen. Six weeks after they the windows are going to be replaced and then after that the siding is going to go up on the house.

Apparently there is a rush to get this done before winter hits. That is fine but it is going to send me to the moon. Ugh. I hate household chaos.

A couple years ago we installed hardwood floors in our house. I spent weeks picking out the wood, we picked it up,son and husband hauled in 48 boxes (1000 square feet) in 90 degree weather. I pulled some pieces out and quickly realized I did not like my choice! Took me 2 days to get the nerve to tell my husband. He just shook his head and said"better call your son". My wonderful son came and loaded it all up and returned it and hauled in the perfect flooring a week later. I love the floors but they don't come easy!! enjoy the adventure and keep smiling. We laugh about this all the time now! And since then we have done many more projects and nobody has been killed or divorced!
