We had it on the floor this evening next to the linoleum and it was much better, and only about 10 cents a square foot more, although with linoleum, we'd pay to have it put down and with this, we could do it ourselves, so we'd end up saving on installation.

Maybe for the basement instead of linoleum there are things like "tile laminate" (looks like tile, literally snaps into place, no fuss no muss) that would be very durable and easy to maintain. I could browse the home improvement warehouses for hours any day of the week, the new products that make home renovation easy amaze me. Nice floors indeed.

I can't wait until we get the yard fenced in, although that'll have to wait until we sell our other house. I wish all that was over with so I could really concentrate on this new place. I am so happy with the floors. I used to refinish antiques and was attracted to these really awful pieces that had layers upon layers of paint. The feeling I'd get when removing that last layer and finally seeing the wood was always so wonderful that it would erase all the hours I'd just put into scraping. This floor was like that. I know I've pulled thousands of staples and nails, but it's so worth it. We went shopping for carpet for the bedroom today. No hardwood there (it was added on). We need to tile the bathroom and do something with the basement floor. Probably linoleum. Not certain yet. Ooh! Idea. I'm going to post a picture of my back porch on here and see if anyone can give me ideas. I'm clueless what to do with it. Murry and Chewie love it at this new house.

How lucky you are! I know what you mean about loving to do that kind of work. Those floors are fabulous! How lucky you are! I know what you mean about loving to do that kind of work.

Amazing that physical labor gives you a "good" tired rather than the kind of tired you get from banging on a computer or crunching numbers all day. Murry looks like he's right at home (great floors for sliding, I'm sure). oh, WOW!!! those floors are gorgeous!
