Our little house of horrors

This is our dining room.  Several things to note--the washer, dryer, stove and refrigerator--do not normally reside in the dining room.  

This is part of our living room.  The freezer, dolly, and laundry baskets don't normally reside here either.

It's not that I don't like change; it's just that I don't like change.  We're in the midst of handling some flooring issues, (and some window issues and some porch issues) and even though we planned this change, it still kind of sucks.  Even though I know the end result will be a (huge) improvement, it still really sucks.  

The cats agree with me--mostly because every morning from now until completion, they have to be corralled in various rooms to ensure they don't take advantage of the less than lightening fast reflexes of the uninitiated workmen who are unused to slamming doors in the faces of wily felines.
