We've recently completed some home upgrades, a new tile floor in our entry way, and more significantly, a wood floor installation/revamp in our kitchen and dining room.
All home renovations create upheaval, and in this case, the wood floor project required that we stay out of half of our house for three days or so. We had to move all the furniture out of the area, and eat in the living room. We also fashioned a sort of plank bridge to have access to our bedroom.
One of the flooring contractors told Kris that he installed floors in an elderly woman's house in the Wausau area. He told her that, because the sealant needs to dry, she wouldn't be able to get to her bedroom for a night or two.
"That's OK," replied the woman, who he described as being in her 80s. "I can sleep in my recliner. It's very comfortable."
"Oh, good," the contractor said. "And, you won't be able to get to the bathroom, either."
"Oh, that's no problem," the woman cheerily answered. "I'll use the back yard. I'm an old farm girl."
