The Great Carpet Clear-out Weekend is over!

Our backs and hands ache, but all the vile carpet is GONE. We did the entire second floor (three bedrooms and the hall) plus four (half) flights of stairs.

We stacked it on the back porch....

...and marvelled at just how much trash it really was!

Sunday afternoon, I logged on to 1-800-Got-Junk and scheduled a pickup for Monday morning. My new best friends arrived right on time (after calling 30 minutes in advance), loaded it all up, scanned my Visa card, and it's as if the carpet was never there!

I have a few nails and staples to pull out of a couple of stairs, but we're pretty much all ready for the installers of the NEW carpet on Friday.

WooHoo!
