Score One for Us

By some miracle the house didn't spit out more cat hair balls, a toilet didn't fall through the ceiling and the ants seem to have vanished...for now. Last night, we actually made progress without a minor disaster befalling us.

Kevin started painting the ceiling over the bottom set of stairs to the basement and I was able to tape all of the hallway and down the stairs in preparation for painting the trim. Hooray! (I forgot to take a photo, sorry.)

Kevin was also able to finally finish scraping the mildew off of the back of the bathroom tiles. And the BIG accomplishment: My brother came over and took almost all of the remaining carpet and hauled it away to the dump. The last of the carpet padding and a few random pieces of carpet were shoved into garbage bags and are ready to go out to the curb for regular trash pick-up. Hopefully by next week, we'll be completely devoid of cat carpet!
