New Carpet FINALLY

So I'm sitting here, with hammers sounding in the background as the carpet man puts in our new carpet. (He's singing loudly to himself because i don't think he knows I'm up here haha.) It has been almost exactly one month since we moved in and the day after we moved in was the day that the madness of the sewer line began. Needless to say, I've been sleeping in my living room, packed full of stuff for about a month now, without a room of my own. I thought I'd put up a few pictures to show you all what's been going on.








this is my room before the sewer broke, as I was unpacking it (with some friends' help as you can see)


Then the next night, we had to move everything out of it because the sewer line broke and water was coming out everywhere. it was a little bit of madness if i've ever seen it.
So, we had to have all the carpet removed and dehumidifiers in every room of the basement
We had the sewer company come and dig up our yard to fix the problem
And this is where I've been sleeping for a month. In the midst of all the basement furniture. I really don't mind it actually. The room has windows all the way around and a really nice view. I actually set up my computer over in that corner you can see in the picture so it's really becoming very normal as the days go on.
But I am definitely ready to have my own space again. So after tonight, I will be back in my bedroom and all will be well.

I'm so glad this has come to an end for you. You have that great room downstairs that you have your own door to. That's so cool. I'm sure your family is so glad to have things moving back to normal. your students don't have to wade through boxes anymore.
