Introducing Our New Floor…. Psych!

OK…. so that’s mean… Sorry…. But this is what we’ve been living with since we finally grouted that floor on Sunday. What a nightmare that was! We planned to use the same color grout as the backsplash area. We had mixed a tiny bit of both and looked and looked and looked at it by the floor tile and decided that Latte was perfect. So we picked up a bag of sanded. We get it home and pour it in the bucket and it looked red!?!?! Grouted one tiny section thinking it would change to the backsplash color… Nope! So back to the tile store… UGH! This time we picked up Biscuit. We also checked the colors at Lowe’s but ultimately decided Biscuit was it. Since it’s light (we wanted to blend with the tile rather than accent it.) I need to get it sealed before it gets dirty or stained… YIKES! We have to wait 72 hours for that… so guess what I’ll be doiong after work this evening????

I appears Apple is breaking their own street date on the new iPhone or they are playing a nasty hoax on all the folks that pre-ordered for home delivery…. We all got emails saying that regardless of what our Fedex tracking says… we will receive them the 23rd…. Conservative Happy Dance! WOOT!

Yay, 4 friends chatted!

    Hi Caligurl! Looking forward to seeing your floor… for real! ;) I like grout that matches rather than contrasts, too. Guess what? Attila is a honey and we’ve hired him to do the whole house in hardwood. A big spit up hair ball this morning in the cat room assured me it was the right decision. We’ve picked a new floor- similar to the one I showed but so much nicer! Details tomorrow! Yay to the iPhone- they said it on the news today about the early delivery!

    I’m so going to tease you about our new floors, too! :D Did you get your iPhone? (((Hugz)))

    Hi Caligurl,
    Thanks for the kind words. I am over the shock now but feel that profound sadness after you loose your pet! I am going to get a little brother for Billy Eliott when I come back from vacation. I bet your floors are going to look beautiful! Have a wonderful weekend.
    Hugs, Dru

    Just checking! :) No new post or photos. :) Busy week ahead for us. So much packing up of things… like our whole walk-in closet! We need to dismantle all the shleving or else they would have to piecemeal the flooring- don’t want that! (((Hugz)))
