Dan! With the amount of work you still want to complete to make the baby's
palace perfect, you had
better tell Teresa to keep off the Harley or the roller coaster for the next
few days, or
preferebly, weeks!

Subject: [BlindHandyMan] Nursery floor.
I donned filthy clothes and respirator yet again last night, and entered
the toxic waist land, soon to be my daughters nursery. I sliced up the
carpeting, rolled it, tied it, and stuffed it into contractor bags, along
with the padding. I had to crawl around on the floor for quite a while
trying to remove the hundreds of staples they had used to tack down the
padding. Also, I had to remove that lovely tack strip around the edges of
the room. Man is that stuff nasty to handle. Kind of like trying to pick
up a porcupine.
I then tried shop vacking up the room, but after a long time, I realized
it just wasn't worth it. The exhaust from the vac was blowing around the
dust and although I was sucking up some, I was putting more in the air.
So, I sealed up the room, closing windows and closing the door.
Hopefully, the dust will settle out in the quiet air, and I will go in
tonight and wet mop floor, walls, and ceiling. I think that will work
better to remove all the dirt and dust.
The hard wood floor is in pretty bad shape, and I am now considering
laying a new hard wood floor over the old. It is pretty flat, not like
the floor I found in my living room a couple of years ago. The room is
quite rectangular, with virtually no cut-outs. It is rather small, a bit
over 8 by 11. I don't think I will require an underlayment. I am trying
to convince myself that I can do the whole thing, start to finish, in
three days. Now I just have to convince Teresa of the same.
