There's a line of ducks! One more to go.

The wood floor was installed Thursday. It only took them a day -- they were done and offsite before 5pm, taking all the old carpet & tile with them. We then spent the evening putting everything back, including stuff that had been moved 6 weeks ago when we painted. I still have to hang things on the walls, but that's pretty easy, once I decide what goes where.

The boxes still in the basement will be moved back upstairs and emptied when the new cabinet arrives, at which point this stage of home renovation will be done. The base of the old hutch is still in service as a microwave stand, but that will change.

The cats barely noticed the flooring change. They were annoyed by the noise and strangers in the house, but other than that, it doesn't seem to have affected them at all. Ji is much more interested in the sleeping bag on the floor (I need to take it to the laundromat, as it's too big to fit into the washer that I have).
