OK - here we go.
Something new for me and something new for you.
For those of you who got an earlier e-mail last August, you undoubtably remember the freak rain storm and the flooding we had in the basement. And for those of you who didn't get the e-mail or who failed to read the e-mail, let me just say quickly: We had a flood in the basement.
So weather or not you got the e-mail, let it be clear - we had a flood in the basement - ha ha. In September the insurance adjuster came to see the damage. In October she said we would be covered. In November the floor man came out to see the damage and give us a time in December when he could get started laying the new floor. We thought after Christmas would be best. That's now.
Last Wednesday the floor man came and delivered boxes of new flooring and said that the wood would have to "breath" in the room for a few days. The following Monday - just 3 days ago - he got started. Presto arresto - the floor was done the next day. And it looks beautiful too.
But what a pain, folks - we have been scraping and scraping and scraping paint off of the floor in the rest of the basement and it's sloooooooooooing going.
Ok - that was that blog. Hopefully i will learn more about this blog thing and let you find my stories here instead of me filling your e-mail boxes.
Hugs and Kisses -
Eddie

Hey Eddie Spaghetti:
That name makes me laugh! Glad your floor turned out good... what a pain though.
Finally... a 'blog' --- Instead of a 'hog' of email space!!!
xoxoxo
Didn't know you were Italian !!!
You are actually a good writer.
Hope your new floor will stay above water forever.
