*SOMEONE I SPOKE TO TODAY*

This morning I drove my sister, Kim, back to the airport to fly home. She graciously spent half of her spring break helping me lay the bamboo floors you saw in yesterday's blip. Now that she knows the "secrets of the trade", she may find herself helping my parents upgrade their kitchen flooring sometime soon.

The intent was to finish the flooring in a day, maybe two, so that we could put the bed back up in the guest bedroom, but the 6 doorways and a closet in the hallway really slowed us down. Not to mention the two scary weak spots in the sub-floor that we had to patch first. In the end, she spent 3 nights on the couch and only one in the guest bed. What a wonderful sister to endure all that just to help us out!
