Monday

How does that go? The only thing for certain is change? Well, that seems to be my life of late. Last week the carpet sales person called to say that the tile I had selected was not available therefore, the installation could not occure today (Monday). I picked out a new tile, which he assured me could be delivered Wednesday (day after tomorrow) and installed on Friday. So I called the ceiling installer and put him off till next week. Today I am informed that the tile will probably be here Tuesday noon so the installer is going to prep the area tomorrow and probably install in the afternoon, finishing Wednesday. That will be one job finished. The vinyl will be installed next Monday.
Then, today (Monday) he tells me that the carpet I chose .. You got it.. isn't available and won't be made until May for a middle of the month ship date. BUT he can probably get the same color in Mohawk .. at the same price. (I'd like to know the price of the one I'm not getting and the price of the one I am getting to see if I really am getting a "deal".) And if he can get the livingroom carpet in the emerald green I want it would be a good idea to order the bedroom carpet from the same manufacturer because then they would be the same heighth. OK. I"ll look at samples tomorrow.
Wilst I was contemplating the hanging of the ceiling I suddenly realized that the wall scar where I tore out the room divider should be repaired before the ceiling guy comes in. Quick call to my carpenter. He'll be here tomorrow to have a look-see. Hopefully he will be here in the morning -- but, the tile man will be here in the morning -- EEEEK! The tile man doesn't want anyone walking through where he will be working and since it is the front (and only) door...
And I wonder why my sholder is in constant tensness.
Happy spring.
