Hey ladies. I picked out replacement flooring last week, but they would only pay for replacement linoleum (sp). And since it was so old each room was priced differently. I managed to finagle them to put the nicest stuff in the kitchen and the cheaper in the back room. They won't pay for any of the carpet, only to clean it. But we did discover beautiful old hardwood in the living room, and it does not need to be refinshed...well so far what we have seen of it. So we will be tossing the LR carpet. They will paint the bedroom and the kitchen, so I am picking out colors for those rooms. The cabinets did not sustain enough damage for them to be replaced...says them! And at this point I am so tired I don't have fight left in me. I figure at least the floors will be mine and my dirt so that is a comforting feeling. And even though I know some of you ladies liked the tomato red soup kitchen it will become a nice yellow to match the gray and greenish flooring and my new bee theme. Right now we are fighting to get them to replace the furnace and hot water heater, which they think are fixable, but were so water logged we feel they need to be replaced. INSURANCE PEOPLE ARE FUCKING ASSHOLES! Our contractor was nice until we signed on with him thru the insurance company, now he won't even return our calls. I guess this is just the way of the world. I may be calling the channel 6 news again really soon. Anyways thanks for letting me vent ladies. Your support has meant the world to me. WMS
