Rug Removal

The cat woke us up at 6:30 Sunday morning, so we got an early start on the last coat of paint. After the painting supplies were clean up...correction...while Andrew was cleaning up the painting supplies, I started ripping out the rug. After wrestling the rug into manageable sections, it was in the dumpster at our town's transfer station by 2:00.

From the picture it just looks like there's debris on the floor, but it's actually paint from a previous owner. We've also got a large water stain in the far corner to deal with. Other than that, the floor is in great shape and just needs some TLC from the random orbit sander we'll rent from Home Depot.

After work tonight, I pulled all of the staples out of the hardwood floor. Now we just have to remove the tack strips from the rug, move a couple pieces of furniture and we're ready to sand and Polyurethane!
