A New Doorknob?

Greg and I have been in debate for quite some time about our bedroom floor. I have been in favor of laminate since I love it in the main living area and know how hard our family is on carpet. Greg really wanted the comfort of carpet. At one point during our on-going conversation, Oliver threw up on the floor and I had a significant amount of work getting that out of the carpet and then Greg spilled coffee on it. At that moment, he looked at me and said one of my favorite word combinations, "you win."

We put the project on our "in the future" list last weekend. On Friday, the last day of Greg's vacation week where he literally had nothing planned, we went to the Home Depot with three kids so it was definitely NOT a date. We went for a doorknob because one of ours was broken. (I have mentioned we are hard on things, haven't I?) We once again saw a floor we liked and convinced ourselves we liked it more than the one we had previously selected. We took home a sample and quickly discovered it was the same floor we had already decided would be perfect and it was discounted to 79 cents a square foot.

Greg started taking measurments and calculated our total cost before heading back to Home Depot. He most likely needs another vacation to recover but my bedroom and master bath look amazing. Even the guy who wanted carpet agrees. However, after we had everything put away, I flopped dramatically onto the bed and it moved across the floor. I was shocked and my handsome husband smirked, "I told you I like carpet".

Fingers crossed......
