Then Monday morning Michael was back for breakfast and worked all day getting the boards down. Daniel was able to help in the afternoon too, with Max also asssisting
Daniel Max and Michael once it was all done. The wet looking patches are just where they wiped over a few dirty spots.
Now we have to wait to sand and polish the floor. Of course Max wants to do that too.
So back to me getting sick – thanks to Max with his broken ribs and restless sleep for a week I was getting maybe 3 hours sleep a night if I was lucky. I know I should have gone and slept in another room but I didn’t. So with lack of sleep and three days of my 53 year old tired body babysitting sweet Riley I think I was a tad tired and paid the price.
Thankfully I am now feeling better and ready to start babysitting again tomorrow
THANK YOU SHERRY

Lovely! I love wood floors but I don't think I'd want to DUST them so I'll keep carpet for now. BUT we're going to do a bit of remodeling soon and I'm dreading it!!!!! I hate remodeling!!!!!!!! Yours looks wonderful though, my little sweet thing.
Smoochies,
Connie

A rest in bed will do wonders! Love the timber floor, it looks like a great sized room, and there is nothing like floorboards, I love them!

Your new wood floors look fantastic Alison. Hope you & Max are both feeling better.
Alison, I am so sorry that you're not feeling well. My daughters have a summer cold and today I started feeling that ache and fever so familiar. Your floors look amazing though. They did a beautiful job. I just made chicken soup for me and the girls. I wish I lived nearby, I would send you some. Blessings, Karen

Poor you Alison, too much going on for sure, you sometimes forget how important a good night's sleep is.
Your floor boards look fantastic, wasn't it great the boys could come and work as hard as they did. Bet you're busting to get everything set up now
