How I spend my free time

Here is our latest home improvement project - we refinished the hardwood floor in our living room. My hubby and I are the do-it-yourself type but I'll admit, he wasn't such an enthusiast participant in this project. It needed to be done, the finish on the floor was original and our house was built 40 years ago. It was supposed to be a weekend project but you know how that goes - it ended up taking two weekends to complete the job. This is a messy, smelly, somewhat back-breaking project but the results are very rewarding - just look at that shine! Only a few more steps - clean up the DUST that went everywhere and install the baseboards - then we get to the fun part - decorating!

Next on the list - refinishing the kitchen floor. I think we'll take a weekend off before we tackle that one. :)
