High?! How are You?

So ah, a long relaxing weekend, extra day off work? Right? Yeah right! So I spent the weekend working on putting hardwood floors in the house. The hope, to relieve my allergies among other things. But alas, I think I have collectively encapsulated a years worth of allergies in three days. The combination of pulling up carpet, and then gluing floor... well was more than an ideal situation.

I realized things were wrong when Saturday night after working two straight days, in the glue, and minimizing respect for ventilation... everything started to spin around. When I woke up with a "glue hangover" Sunday I knew things were really bad. And when I thought I was going to fall off the stage on Sunday while reading... at this point I knew things were real bad.

But good news. I've cracked the window in the house... and I'm now minimizing brain cell loss. Oh and Kevin, Brent and Allen... much thanks for the help! Kevin... proved his expert Friday by teaching me how to install hardwood floors... much thanks!

I can understand just what you are going through because we just put new flooring in the bathroom and kitchen, and the laminate wood flooring in the livingroom/hall. Kevin used paint thinner to get the glue part up from the old bathroom flooring and he didn't crack a window either. What a smell, although I think he liked the dizzy sensation.

I have never had a glue/paint hangover but whenever people talk about it my head gives off a mini dizzy sympathy pain. :p
