Home maintenance continued…

We started replacing the carpet in our master closet yesterday. Today we put in the new carpet, using carpet squares from Lowe’s.

The net result, it looks nice.

A little home maintenance this weekend

Our cat, Simon, has been peeing occasionally in the closet in our master suite. We’ve tried to control it every time we catch it, but it’s just gotten too bad.

We are thinking that after this contract at Boeing is up, we’re going to look along the whole west coast for the next gig, with a good likelihood that we’ll end up in California. Nice weather in California, especially the winters make that pretty attractive.

Whatever happens, we need to do something about the problem in the closet, so we tore up the carpet this morning and set up some fans to dry out the spots that are damp. Then we’ll need to seal the sub-floor to lock the smell in. Then we are putting down carpet squares. I wouldn’t put these in a heavy traffic, main living area, but in a closet, they seem fine. Plus, if the cat does pee on one again, we can pull a single square out and take care of it.

Later this afternoon, or tomorrow morning if it’s not dry by 3:00 pm, we’ll seal the floor. It requires an hour to dry, then we’ll put down the carpet.

Jim Twamley says if you’re not sure whether you want window awnings or not, get them anyway. You’ll be glad you did.

He also offers a short tutorial on the standard RV awnings as well.
