Finally Finished!!!

Okay, it took a long time but the floor is finally finished. Now I have to wait 3 days before I can move any furniture back in. Here are the final pictures (be ready for ALOT of pictures).
This is my dining room right now:

I'm ready to do the computer room now! It's worth all the hard work just to see the finished product. Anybody who scratches my floor will die a slow, painful death! LOL!Now, to get everything dusted before we move stuff back. The living room is the only clean room in my house at this time. Now, maybe I can blog about something else for a change. But I'm just proud of all the hard work and results. Have a good day!

When I saw the pictures on blog at Sandy and Robert's house last night, I wanted to post but didn't want you to look at the comments over my shoulder! :)

Wanted to say how beautiful the floor looks!! It really show how much work you guys invest into the floor and it shines beautifully! I know it's a mess right now with your furnitures everywhere else in the house instead of living room but hang in there, it's gonna be worth it when you guys sit in living room and be blinded by its shiny reflections! :)

It was real good to see you both last night at McMillan's house!! What a nice surprise! :)

Love ya! M-

About Me

I am now an RN. I love taking pictures, especially of my grandchildren. I love taking care of people and wish there was more time to do it. Management puts so much paperwork and picky stuff on us we really don't have time to do the job we are destined to do.
