Sunday

What I've learned today.

1. A husband and wife should not work together and definitely not if either/or both of them is a Type A personality. You will not talk for a whole day - this could be a blessing in disguise...

2. Reading a book while your husband repaints a wall or does any other home improvement is a wise and sensible thing to do.

3. When using Spackle, less is more. More is more only applies to Rupaul and Taylor Lautners abs.

4. When you're sanding Spackle it gets everywhere and I mean, everywhere! See no.3 above.

5. Sanding Spackle sucks. See no.4 above.

6. Apparently it takes a million kajillion staples to put a rug down. Really, I'm not even exaggerating here.

7. Lifting a million kajillion staples with needle nose plyers sucks.

8. After lifting a million kajillion staples I no longer have use of my right hand - who knew?!

9. A husband and wife should not lift a rug up together - see no. 2 above.

10. A Shop-Vac is a wonderful tool. Everyone should have one; especially if you own a home.

11. When you lift a rug up it's gross. Gross. Gross. Gross. Ick.

  3. I think we're going to do laminate and maybe tile by the door. We're laying it on Wednesday and we're still up in the air. We were going to do tile throughout but then I saw E. playing with Putty and thought that probably wouldn't be a good idea...
