Paula, I really like your new carpet!!! I love the color!!! I saw some shag carpet somewhere and they've improved it to where it won't mat so bad. That's one thing that I remembered about the old shag. BTW--I had one of those plastic rakes for my shag too!!!!

Thank you for compliments. The color of the carpet is speckled oak, I think the room turned out pretty good. Here's a pic after we got the furniture back in there today. Pretend that you don't see the babies crate, I hate those being in there but that's where they are used to sleeping at night.

There should be a table with a lamp on it in front of the window between the sofa and chair, but hubby has a small TV on it in the corner He will have help this evening and will get the big TV moved back in the living room. Then my end table and lamp will be where they belong again. Isn't it funny........ Men and their TV's and Women and their computers

This is a great thread! Lindsey - I love your floor. Paula - I love the cabinets and the carpeting. The dogs too! I think the house will sell easily. It's lovely! Diana - I have the same ironing board, which I use as a sitting stool in the kitchen. It was my mother's. It's painted yellow at the moment, but I am going to change it.

I am organizing the closets, cabinets, the pantry, etc. I want to feel like the house is mine at last, and I realized that everything needs to be put exactly where I want it. I have not felt like I am home yet. I need everything organized. I guess I may be a bit OCD, but I don't have much stress because I am so organized. I am doing one job every day or so. The basement needs doing too. I learned today when I went down there to check the oil level. I put boxes down there for storage, and it smells moldy. The cartons are damp. They need to be moved! I have to make room somewhere, or else, put some of it out in the garbage.

I spent about 2 weeks feeling totally overwhelmed by the prospect of reorganizing my things, but then I just started doing it, and it's fine. I was going to do the pantry today, but....However, the day is not over yet!

I'm also getting a new floor for the downstairs. Jessie told me today about Home Depot's Allure vinyl planks that supposedly look just like wood, and are so easy to take care of. They are a bit pricey, but I have been saving. Has anyone heard anything about them? I hate the flooring I have now. It's beautiful, but much too high maintenance.
