I'm the weirdo that like carpeting (specifically in the bedroom) I know it collects all kinds of dust and skin and whatever... but I really like walking around barefoot and hard flooring just doesn't feel as nice.
I wear shoes unless sleeping (orthopedic issues)
In my world carpet is a giant dirty rag you walk on and are somehow expected to keep clean.
Only my master bedroom has carpet, and it is trashed, so I need to replace it with something soon.

I just remembered that the band bought a new audio interface, so I'll be recabling the entire rehearsal space on Saturday. But I find that enjoyable, so yay recording gear!
This weekend will be running new conduit and preparing all the electrical for the kitchen.
Depending on how far that gets, I will get flooring installed.
I would much rather run cables than do flooring, because I've done flooring. Best of luck, hope you get it knocked out.
I really like the engineered flooring they are coming out with. Floating floors and click/lock flooring are stupid easy to install. For a kitchen though I would do the ceramic tile that looks like wood. It's gorgeous but takes a lot of skill to get it installed right.
In a few years we are getting a house built. That will be a can of worms I'm sure.
Pro tip: DON'T get tile counter tops anywhere, kitchen or bathroom. Those are the current bane of my homeowning existence.
Concrete counter or stone counter tops all the way!
I really really like polished concrete. I'd do the floors (through out the house!), counter tops, you name it.
Oh no, the floor is covered in blood! Poor some bleach on it, swish it around and mop it off. Sorted.
I have to say that looks fantastic

Another nice thing about concrete is you can heat it super easily.
You get a water boiler, and plumb the water heater through it, and you're good to go.
You can also cool it with the same setup.

Radiant floor heating... Ridiculously efficient compared to baseboard.

Grew up in a concrete slab ranch house with that. There is nothing like putting bare feet down on a warmed floor in the winter.

Getting @MarigabyFrias from the airport tomorrow. Hanging out on Sunday. I'll be in NY, leaving Ohio here in a few hours.

Next time you should let me know you're headed through Ohio ahead of time so we can actually meet up instead of waving as you drive by

@travisdh1 it's always fast and unplanned like this.

Heading to Maine for the long weekend!

I decided I'm going to pick up some kind of fresh sausages (brats, kielbasa, etc) and throw them on the smoker for a while on Saturday.

Car work on the four ring love of mine.

We used to go to Bar Harbor every other summer when I was a kid.

Yep the house we finished in had radiant. It was awesome. I would put it in any house I do if I had the option

Waiting to hear how @MarigabyFrias flights are going. She is taking off any minute from Panama City and will be flying till about midnight. What an awful day.
-
Looks like @dominica and I might be heading out to the Rochester East Ave. bar district to check out the current bars tonight before getting @MarigabyFrias from the airport.
