Picspam! New floors and KITTIES!

[lady_sarai]

Oh, it's been a *long* weekend and today was long, too. =P We had the linoleum replaced with tile in the bathrooms, and it's *beautiful.* I inflict picspams on you, but I also give kitty pictures to make it better. ;)

Using Cary Grant icon as we watched The Bishop's Wife tonight and it might be the best Christmas movie ever. I loves it.



The upstairs bathroom, before:



In this pic, you can see the linoleum lifting a bit by the shower:





The upstairs bathroom AFTER:







The downstairs bathroom, before (where you can really see how bad the linoleum was--the tile guy said the glue had completely dried up and it wasn't even glued down anymore):



I have no idea why the floor looks yellowed. Huh.





Hi, Mo.

The downstairs bathroom, AFTER!







And now, kitties! In my bed again. I think they like the down comforter.





And Mom has her office holiday party Wednesday, so she tried to get her gift bags ready.

Yeah. That went well:



Mo is helping. Chip wants the spot in front of the space heater.



And by helping, I mean choosing the worst spot for a bath.

In other news, no one played in my meme yet and I have only 3 holiday fic requests. I will write you something if you request it! I promise!! :)

Heh. Looks like you all did the same thing I'm doing. Titled the back bathroom (and re-did the whole shower) last summer. Plan to have the guy/company back to tile the front bathroom this summer -- replacing linoleum in both cases. Looks SO much nicer! It's amazing how such a relatively small thing can increase the value.

And such pretty, soft-looking kitties! Mine like my heated blanket. (G)

IT *is* amazing what a difference it makes--we *love* the tile so much. It's kind of a hassle, but worth it. When they built the house, the contractors cut a lot of corners (without our knowledge) and we're paying for it now--the linoleum was lifting up a lot, and in the kitchen the seams are separating and it's even broken where we've tripped on it--we keep carpets over those spots. When we eventually replace that (this summer, probably, it would be impossible in winter), we'll go with the same guy--he was so nice and did a great job.

And thank you! Kitties are wonderful--ours are in love with the electric space heater. :)
