Way the wind blows....

The wind has been blowing here for a couple of days, but today it seems to be worse than yesterday.  But that is part of living in Oklahoma, in a few days it will be cooler and the wind will dye down for a while. 

Well we changed our mind about the floor...so we have been trying many things to get the paper off of the floor...sounds simple enough, you would think.  However, this has been the toughest part of the whole thing.  As of right now, there isn't too much left, but it is being VERY VERY stubborn.  At this point, we walk around the paper that is left like it is a pit of snakes, we just circle it and look down at it like at any time it will just pop off the floor.  We pour hot water on it and let it sit, then scrape, pour more hot water and scrape.  I think I do that in my sleep.  But it is tough stuff!  I have even called someone at Armstrong Flooring to ask if there is anything to remove it with.  But as of yet, no return phone call. 

Today I am tired, my shoulders are sore and my hands hurt and I just have the "I don't want to's" today.  But we have to keep moving on.  I'll get to rest one day...maybe! 

The people came and measured for our vent-a-hood, so we were excited about that because that is a huge part of the kitchen, next will be the floor and ceilings.  I will try to put more pictures up in a few days, to show the progress we are making.  Mean time I will get back to scraping that floor.....everyone have a good evening!
