I think it’s a good thing to do each week. Focus on the positive things in our lives.
Make sure you link up to the Blog Hop at Brian’s Home and get the code to put on your blog. Then visit all the participants.
Today we’re thankful that our flooring is all in. We don’t have the baseboards yet, but all the flooring is down. There is dust everywhere, but we tackle it each day. I’m guessing it’s going to be a while before we get all the dust up. We love the flooring.
We’re hoping that in a week or so we’ll have the kitchen countertops in and all the appliances back where they belong. It will be wonderful to be able to cook, bake and have a sink with running water. Most of all we will be able to use our washer and dryer again. Laundromats are okay, but doing laundry at home is a huge thing to be thankful for.
What are you thankful for today?

Those floors are beautiful. I would love to rip out the rest of the carpet in my house and put in hard wood floors.
I always hated going to a laundromat. Way back when I was first married to my ex I had to use one and it wasn’t a very clean one. I was a very happy camper when we finally got a washer and dryer.
We went to the laundromat today and got all our laundry done. It’s not so bad. We bring a book and read in between washing and drying. We should have the washer and dryer back in by next Friday. Happy days. 🙂
Your new floors are just beautiful! I can’t remember the last time that I went to a laundromat and that’s a good thing.
It is, but it’s quite an experience to go. It wasn’t bad at all. 🙂
Those floors look marvelous. Dad says even reading this makes him exhausted. He remembers going through processes like this over the years and doesn’t think he’ll ever want to do it again. Good luck with the rest of the project!
We haven’t had to difficult of time. We think it’s because we boat and that’s a way different learning curve. We just reverted to what we do on our boat. Worked perfectly. 🙂
It looks stunning! We need to do some updating around here, but we never get around to it. Enjoy those floors.
We love the floors. They are even more beautiful than we imagined. 🙂
Sandee, looking great!! Have a terrific Thursday!
It is most beautiful. Have a terrific Thursday too, Michelle. 🙂
Your new floors are so rich looking. So much better than carpet that holds in all the allergens, not to mention pet accidents. Can’t wait to see your new countertops.
They are indeed and they match our cabinets too. We get the countertops next week. Can’t wait either. 🙂
Looks so good.

We love it, Regine. Thank you. 🙂
Oh, Sandee, I love your new floors! Hardwood floors are so much nicer than carpet. Happy Thursday!
Yes they are. We got a steam cleaner that picks up dirt and dust wonderfully. Just uses distilled water. 🙂
Ahem…looks down at my feet…it doesn’t matter if there is a kitchen or not…I don’t cook, I just make tea and maybe a sandwich.
The Hubby rules the kitchen, which is decorated like a 1940’s up-north cabin, with knotty pine, and tiny counters.
The idea of a smart new kitchen is intoxicating, however, and I truly hope yours is everything that you’ve hoped for!
It will be. We have a pretty good sized kitchen. Hubby and I often cook together. 🙂
beautiful! much to be thankful for.
It is indeed and it’s paid for. That’s even better. 🙂
Sandee what gorgeous floors the stain is so warm and inviting.
Oh boy do I know what you are going thru. 2006 we had our 23 year old kitchen ripped out to the studs. I had the old microwave on the kitchen table. They left the old fridge plugged in near the dining room table. At least we could have breakfast at home but that was about it. Actually now that I think about it the demo started Early Sept that year and was over early Oct. Angel Madi stayed with my parents during that month long process too. Otherwise I’m sure she would have been in the walls for a walkabout
I know you are excited. Hugs cecilia
They will finish up next week and we’re excited about that. Yes the floors are a warm brown/red look. We just love it. Big hug. 🙂
Beautiful flooring. Wish I could have a new kitchen too but I am not complaining but am thankful that I have one to cook in.
Yes having a kitchen is a wonderful thing. We’ve been without one for three weeks now. We’ll be glad when everything is put back together again. 🙂
Our floors are wonderful. But I am mostly thankful for you.
Your loving husband.

I’m thankful for you too, my husband. Love you. 🙂
That was so much fun that you’ll decide to redo the bedrooms next.
That is correct. We’ll do the upstairs next year. Love you Kismet. 🙂
WOW, your floors are really beautiful, we’re jealous! Thanks for joining our Thankful Thursday Blog Hop!
We’re most happy with the floors and the company. Thank you for hosting the Thankful Thursday Blog Hop. 🙂
oh I understand about DUST….Russell is almost finished with our bathroom remodels! Your floors look GORGEOUS!!! Enjoy!
We’ve pretty much got all the dust up. It took us two days. Love and hugs all around. 🙂
Those floors look wonderful! Really beautiful.
They are very beautiful. We’re most happy. 🙂
That looks fantastic! I’ve always wanted wooden or laminate flooring in our home but we’re still thinking of moving so there’s no point replacing it just in case. It looks gorgeous and I bet it’ll be well worth the time and effort when everything’s back in place, the sink and washer and dryer are all ready to use again… I hope everything goes smoothly! xx
Next week everything will be back where it belongs. We’re happy about that. 🙂
These floors are really pretty! I love wood floors. We had ours done a few years ago, just the laminate kind, but so much better than carpet.
Hope your day is going great! <3
We love the floor. We’re having a great day. Went to the laundromat and got all the laundry done today. It’s a really great day. 🙂
Wow, the flooring is just fabulous! Nicely done.
We got just the right flooring. The colors are perfect for our home and cabinets. 🙂
I love all the work you have done! I have not done a thing on my renos in the kitchen in the last month. I did get a great deal on the vinyl plank I wanted at $1500 less than I was expecting, so I bought it and it is sitting in the garage waiting for Alex and I to get started on that. Marv has been super clingy the last couple of days. Every time I sit down and pick up my laptop, he is demanding that he have that space and I pet him! He sends Head bonks and whisker kisses!
It’s a job getting the rugs up, fixing the floor and then putting the new flooring down. We’re sure happy with it. 🙂
Beautiful flooring. I know what you mean about home washing, so much easier. XO
We went to the laundromat this morning and got all our laundry done. They are coming next week to finish up so we’ll have everything back where it belongs by next Friday. We’re so happy. 🙂
Your floors are beautiful! Eventually all the dust will be up, but more will come, that’s job security. Hugs!
I think we have most of the dust up. We’ve been working on that for a couple of week. Hugs. 🙂
The new floors are lovely. We take so much for grant, but it’s wonderful to have a sink, dishwasher, washer and drier…
Enjoy the renovated house 🙂
Yes we do takes so much for granted. We’ll be happy when things are back to normal. Have a great day, Sami. 🙂
They came out so nice. I love the color. Here’s to everything being back together soon! I’m sure you’re going to be so happy with everything when it’s complete. 🙂
We think they will be done by the end of next week. We’re most happy about that. 🙂
Your Florring Liiks Great.I did a thankful Thursday as well
I’ll pop over shortly to see your Thankful Thursday, Mike. 🙂
Hi again! I live your floors! They are beautiful 🙂. Somehow I told you that already on an old post!! LOL. Have a good night!!
Yes I showed everyone all the material we purchased. The floor was a sample. Now it’s a reality. 🙂
How beautiful!!!
We love it indeed. 🙂
Your floor look lovely. I am sure you are thrilled to have it in.
We are thrilled indeed. We’re even more happy to have beat down all the dust. 🙂
Love those floors! W O W ! SPectacular, they look so beautiful and very welcoming. I know oyu love your beautiful updated home. Oh the laundromat, when the kids were small and our washer broke down we had to use a laundromat. Oh ugh, my poor husband was diagnosed with ezcema and I will always believe it was from that old laundry. WHich is now a game store. hahaha
We went to the laundromat yesterday and it’s the last time for now. We’re happy about that. Love and hugs. 🙂
Wow! Beautiful florors and I bet your kitchen looks gorgeous. SO nice to be thankful for things like no more laundromats! YaY! Have a blessed night and wonderful weekend. HUGS and LOVE my friend
They will be back next Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. No more laundromats. 🙂

I’m hoping that they will be done next week. They are scheduled to be here next Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. We’re happy. 🙂
Beautiful… Giving thanks every day, dear Sandee! Thanks for sharing. 😍😘
We sure love our new floor, Bette. A wonderful thing we did. We get the countertops, sink, baseboards and backsplash next week. We’re so ready. 🙂
Wonderful, Sandee!
Pretty! I love the color. Our new carpet made me so happy. I know this will make you happy and bring you much enjoyment too 🙂
Yes it does. Our carpet was 20 years old and it looked okay, but we just didn’t want carpet anymore. On the stairs only. 🙂
The floors are beautiful. When I had flooring put in my apartment it made such a difference. And it is so much easier to take care than carpet. Especially when Jack throws up his breakfast every once in a while.
It is easier indeed and looks so much better. Happy weekend. 🙂
