We’ve been doing a lot of renovation preparation around the house. What that means is we decided to redo the floors in our living room And, once we started looking at floors, expanded it to a short hallway and then the dining room. And while we had repainted the living room and hallway when we moved in last year, we had done nothing with the dining room. (Well, aside from buying a really funky dining room set with pumpkin orange leather chairs.)
