the living room is half empty and the dining room is probably a third empty in preperation for refinishing the floors...hopefully everything can be crammed into the nook or elsewhere (the girls are gone for 10 days) so the hall/room may end up holding easy to carry stuff like the TV, stereo, speakers, and DVD player...computer, too, maybe...I'll have to see after I get back from work tomorrow...I think the butcher block is going to be a pain, not sure how it's going to work out. Making this all possible is having a condo in Erie Islands Resort for a week. The floor should get three coats and be dry enough to walk on by the 20th....however...gotta wait a week before moving furniture or otherwise across it. It's a major pain all the way around...not cool at all...
