Prior to the arrival of the Helpers, I destroyed floors. Lots of linoleum and effing carpet:
See how tough I am? As proof, here's my first haul away. FYI-that's 4 bags of -heavy- linoleum in FIL BigTime's car.
And now, for your entertainment, I will sleep.

Holy home renovation, Batwoman! I too am in awe of what you folks accomplished. Scraped ceilings? Wallpaper stripped? The mind boggles. I think I have to take a nap just reading about it.

Linoleum in bedrooms?!? What the?
Wow that's amazing! Do you have any energy left to hold knitting needles while you're sitting? If you say "yes" then I want to know what you've been eating ... Popeye's spinach? Go girl.
p.s. I've got the sage for ya.
We are not worthy, we are not worthy! BTW, Knitting Ellipse this coming Sunday, not Saturday, but still earlyish (2-7).
OMG. You are a frakkin' MACHINE. There can be no other explanation.
