Since mcforeign posted about our new carpet, I shall, too.



At least once a day, I think to myself


as I walk up the stairs,


This carpet is so wonderful

it almost solves all of my problems.
I can’t seem to keep a bad mood

on when I walk up the steps.

It makes our house actually look good,
feels heavenly,
makes everyone smile.
That’s what new carpet with


extra dense padding can do


on a stairway that kept the original


carpet–nearly 25 years old, until


two weeks ago when it became bare wood.


New carpet will make your life better.  (Home Depot should pay me to say that.)


Who knew.


I can’t stand to walk on it in shoes.


My life is barefoot…

  1. new carpet will solve almost all of my problems? it will make my life better? hmmmm…I am only 40 minutes away from Dalton GA, the self proclaimed “Carpet Capital of the World”…it would be like living in Eden!!!

  2. I remember standing on those carpeted steps in a large t-shirt waiting for my Daddy or yours to carry me out to the car to go home. I love my memories of your house when I was little. It was so safe. It felt so normal to walk into you girls room and flop on the top bunk wondering what we would play at that night. =)
    thanks for the memory.

  3. The carpet is cool…only every time Tiddly-Pom startsstretching (and, consequently, scratching)upstairs, I feel my hackles go up.=)THE NEW CARPET—YOU STUPID ANIMAL!!!!Poor baby-man.He doesn’t know any better, but I makehim stop anyway.lol

  4. I think she was looking for more a classical/baroque style.  At least that’s what I had in mind.  But the more important factor is that it be good but not very popular (or at least not one of those pieces that you think of being in weddings all the time).
