Poor Scott has no bedroom furniture as of this weekend because we moved it to my parents' house for storage. He is using a bunch of cardboard boxes to hold his clothes. Right now the master bedroom has crappy carpeting that wasn't really quality and wasn't put down correctly so it's coming up in random places. The guest bedroom (which is now his "office" or what I call the "'throw random crap here' room" is all hardwood like the rest of the main floor. We just decided to bite the bullet last week and arrange for new carpeting. So the guy came on Friday to measure, and we ordered our carpet on Monday. We're just going to do a nice neutral light dusty brown color since we have no idea what we're doing with the decor. It's really nice bouncy quality Shaw nylon carpeting, though. We were going to put a new layer of vinyl on the kitchen floor for now as well, but changed our minds after the guy told us there are three layers (one tile, two vinyl) already. Bummer. It'll cost a pretty penny to rip up and put in new stuff, especially since we want to gut the kitchen and expand anyway since the cabinets are shot and we want to replace them as well. So we're holding off on the kitchen for now in the hopes that we'll be able to afford the expansion / remodeling of the kitchen in Spring 2010 without taking out a loan, which neither of us is too keen on doing. We also cleaned all the carpeting in the "little room" downstairs that we've cleaned and painted over the past couple weeks. It's going to become the new office. I think we both just feel like this crap is taking forever.
