Low Key Easter Weekend Recap
Y'all it almost happened. It seemed like it was almost a perfect carpet install. Then the dude grabbed a broom and swept all of the carpet on top, swept the floor, then swept the stairs going downstairs. Thanks for taking our clean carpet and giving it a fresh layer of unknown dust and dirt all over it. Then we looked when they left and saw a gap by the baseboard on the landing we weren't happy with and I know they had to have seen it so I fear shoe molding is in our future which we hate. The final "of course?" We had a TON left. Like enough to recarpet another set of stairs easily. Uh, why are you sending someone out to measure to give us a quote and we have enough left over to carpet another set of stairs and have enough of another piece for a big strip in front of the washer and dryer. This goes well beyond the "10% waste" they have you get. (It stretches 2/3 the length of our basement) So begins the process of trying...
Yeah Nebraska takes the cake there. That was the worst smell I have ever experienced and I have driven past farms in Texas that were almost as big but didn't smell like that, so I don't know what is going on there.
ReplyDeleteThat was heinous.
DeleteI went to college in Greeley, Colorado. Meat packing is a huge industry there, and back then the feedlots were practically in city limits. Plus some of the processing itself is a smelly business. It wasn't bad all the time, but depending on the wind and what they were processing there were days when "the smell of money" was overwhelming.
ReplyDeleteThe smell of money, indeed!
DeleteI went to the Coors plant in Golden Colorado when I was 18 or 19 and the smell of the hops and all they do there was SOOOOOOO bad. To this day if I smell anything remotely like that, I get sick to my stomach. Oddly, cereal places and the Nestle place out here have a similar smell, just not as strong.
ReplyDeleteUgh, I can't imagine! Sounds like I don't want to anyway!
