| Wardrobe Malfunction |
The floor guys told me that they would refinish the living and dining rooms areas first, and then start on the kitchen and front hallway next week.
Great. That meant I could get in my front door for a few more days and retrieve clothes from the bedroom and some papers from the den. I was in kind of a rush when I left on Sunday night, and just grabbed a few days worth of stuff.
So...I get home last night, check on the cats (fine - no more damage), and head home to get the mail and scoop up a few more outfits and shoes, along with some papers I needed for a meeting this evening.
The front door won't budge. They've placed the heavy, teak bookcases from the living room against the front door. I ran around to the back and looked inside. The floors look amazing! They stripped and sanded yesterday. They hadn't yet laid the first coat of varnish, so I could walk on the floor if I needed to, but they had placed the teak TV armoire in front of the stairs. Completely blocked. No way in for now.
I'm really hoping my good black suit and a few extra pairs of pants are at the dry cleaners, and I may have to use this as an excuse to pick up some new duds. My hostess is about a size 6, so borrowing clothes is not an option.
My brown suit is going to get old by this time next week. |
