I am Ready and He Better Not Stand Me Up

5:42 AM the time I am supposed to be getting up and I am just laying down.  I worked like a maniac last night and of course you can’t really tell.  Doesn’t that make you mad when that happens to you?

anyway when I started demo’ing the floor I found a little surprise.

yes you are seeing correctly. rotted wood.  The underside of the wood shows water damage.  Yup…when I moved in here that disgusting fridge was leaking.  I got rid of that thing in a hurry.  Sold it to a guy who made a keg-o-rator out of it.

So I did just what you think I did.  I tore the whole floor out.  Yes ladies and gentleman when the contractor gets here  in a couple of hours he will be replacing a floor instead of a ceiling…LOL I wish I could see your face right now.  Oh pal-ee-ze I am just kidding. I got you though didn’t I? ADMIT IT.

No I went downstairs in the basement to assess the damage from there.  water damage there as well.

I never even noticed this before.  Anywho I am just going to  patch it and call it a day!  When the floor falls through the insurance company can pay to have it fixed.  I am not going there!!  Hopefully no one gets hurt…

Anyway I did not finish the whole floor but I did enough so the contractor can do what he gotta do and I don’t have to pay him an extra dime!!

  1. I was like—OH NOOOOOO. So yes. I totally believed you ripped out your whole floor.

    Today is going to be terrible for you. Or, at least it would be for me… lack of sleep turns me into a zombie. A very mean zombie. I guess that might be mitigated for you, seeing as how you’re actually going to get a bunch of work done, without having to knock yourself out doing it!!

    Good luck!! I hope it goes just the way you want it to!

    • LOL look when I wrote that I was in the bed and I actually fell asleep in the middle of posting it and woke back up to finish. LOL Obviously whenever I am tired i turn into a prankster big time. Have to get a laugh, laugh gives you energy and is good for your heart!!

      Once he gets started I am going to sleep for a few minutes.

  2. Well – is the blog a parallel universe of the misadventures blog? Something about rotted wood at 5am that can ruin your day. I know you’ll march right through this… get so sleep.
