Who needs the treadmill with all that work? Hehehe. I sympathize with your carpet issues. I had the mother of all issues in my old house with our carpet installation. Attempt #1: two rolls of carpet arrive with the installers - both are supposed to be the same carpert - one is not - have to send it all back and reorder to get the same dye lot. Attempt #2: things are looking good - both rolls arrive and are the same - installation crew unrolls carpet outside before bringing in the house and discover a huge hole in the carpet from the fork of a forklift - can't work around it because of where the hole is situated - order more carpet but now it is on backorder - will take three or four more weeks. Attempt #3: I finally get my carpet in - some two months later - note: this was for the entire upstairs minus the kitchen and bathroom so all of our furniture was moved downstairs and in the garage - we were sleeping in the living room. So.... I hope that makes you feel better about your carpet! *winks* Your mention of laundry reminds me that I should be throwing a load or two in myself. Don't work too hard!
