In our case it all came down to our flooring being "near the end of useful life" and some "dog damage on trim by door." That is NOT a lie. We do have horrible carpet (it's 21 years old and has gone through 6 dogs, 3 litters of puppies and 2 kids). We also have multiple scratch marks by the back door where the dogs tell us with their feet when they need to go out.
The bad news is that we are being forced to purchase new carpet and fix the trim. The GOOD news is that we are being forced to purchase new carpet!!!! I could care less about the trim.
So now I get to go and look at new carpet! I've been wanting it for a long time!
Since I've been reading my book for about the umpteenth time, I leave you with this little song I learned in the Caribbean:
Rise up this morning. Smile at the rising sun. Tree (three) little birds, on my doorstop,
Singing sweet songs. A melody pure and clear. Singing: This is my message for you....
Singin' don't worry 'bout a thing. Cuz every little thing is gonna be alright.

Yay for new carpet and trim. What a drag going through all of this but it will be worth it.
I LOVE that song...Thanks for the memory jog! Perfect! :)
oooh i know that song, a new carpet sounds like fun to me.
All time fav song. I catch myself singing it all the time. Yea! New carpet for you!
I am excited for you to get new carpet. Also, thanks so much for the unexpected surprise. I like it so much, only problem is that the weather here is getting warmer. But I don't care I wear it anyway! Thanks!!!
patty I've been lurking here to see what I've missed and I have to tell you I feel like putting my gloves on now!! I'd never make it there unless the summer season was longer. It sure is beautiful though!
I suppose carpeting makes sense to help hold heat in, so YAY for new carpeting!
I love the doggy coat too :P
