If you want a job done right...


I asked nicely. I got everything ready and explained what needed to be done. And STILL BIL Josh, in town for a wedding, didn't get around to cutting out our damaged piece of carpeting. Something about best-man duties or something.

Anyway.

I was over-caffinated that day, having had coffee for breakfast, a Coke at lunch, and then a 20 minute nap that afternoon. I woke up from that nap fully energized, and started attacking that carpet. It wasn't as bad as I'd thought it would be, but it did leave my arms a bit sore.

And I had the only other conscious person in the house (Leah) take a photo as proof.

Way to go Liz! One day you may yet pick up a paint brush too!

I am imagining you singing "I am woman hear me roar" as you rip through that carpet.
Also, Leah is such a whiz with your digital camera!

Leah really does take good photos. And way to grab the bull by the horns Liz.

And Leah is part of the cohort which doesn't know life without digital cameras....

I would like to point out that Ben and I were the unconscious ones alluded to in the post! : ) Yay for naps!
