Afforded Opportunity

Sometime ago, well really, an unbelievable amount of time ago, we invested in some bamboo flooring. And we have researched and studied the process for laying hardwood floor and each time we looked at the flooring stored in our spare room our intentions were good to get 'er done, as they say. only it just never happened. housework, yardwork, hot weather, cold weather, vacationing, tv watching, church even, you name it, we have always had something get in the way of not just finishing the job, but actually starting it. then somewhere along the line someone in the family got this brainiac idea to strip the living room and dining room of the carpet that was just about done for. well now "we" have time and he is hard at it, doing the prep work to get 'er done. target...thanksgiving. then everyone will get an invitation to come to my house of shiny floor for feasting and festivities. so yes, he is working and yes we are being paid for it because we will be reaping the reward of the efforts. Paint first. starts tomorrow. i can smell it already and i am delighted. then finish the floor prep and voila' instant presto new space!

so yes there is opportunity is what comes our way.
