ok so first i wanted to make a plug... check out Robbie's blog tomorrow for "Aunt Sis and the Propeller" (did i spell that right Ash)? lol
it should be a good blog... i am excited :)
anyway... so after rubbing panty hose on my rear end (as per Aunt Robbie's advice) i went back to work on the floor.
Here are some pics of the floor after the linoleum (at least the top half) had been removed. it still needed to be scraped in these pics... we have already finished scraping though.
then we pulled all the broken pieces of concrete out of the hole so we could fill it properly. as you can see from the pic we ran into some problems. what are these pipes? after we fill the hole the tallest pipe will probably be 1/2in from the top. Our guess is that these pipes leaked and the original owners brought them up out of the foundation to fix them and then just threw some concrete on top. notice i said on top... just a thin layer.
so anyway.. this is where we are now. if all goes well we will at least get this patched tonight.
then when we have some more time we will pull the washer, dryer, and fridge to get the linoleum out from under those.
washer is still draining into the house :( thought we had fixed it... so i threw our bed sheets in there... nope. now we have wet dirty sheets :) fun!
stayed tuned for more kitchen remodeling fun :)

I didn't know you were remodelling the kitchen.......just kidding. I'm sorry about the trouble you're having. Did you ever think about fixing the leak first and doing the remodelling after?

Sounds like tons and tons of fun... Looks, like slightly less.
i think a leak was fixed and that is why it is this nexxus (ashley is that spelled correctly?) of pipes with weird bends for no reason. we have patched it now... just waiting for it to dry. today we will probably rip up the linoleum in the laundry room and maybe under the fridge.. then go swimming since we dont have church tonight (since we have to wait for the cememnt to dry) :) a good swim is always good after hard work... praying for no rain today :)
Unbelievable!!!
