..............I worked for this couple 28 years ago and I'm currently replacing the old carpet.  I worked for them about 8 years ago installing vinyl flooring in a laundry and bathroom after pouring some self leveler.   That's when "will work for food" became my calling card. 

Each day I worked, I was asked ...........would you stay for dinner?  ...............uuum .........yes? :D


Well, it's the same treatment this go-'round.  Today she wanted to feed me lunch.   I had to refuse since I already agreed to stay for dinner.   I start late, and if I stopped for lunch too, I wouldn't get any work done.

I would have stayed for dinner last night, but I still had to go cut the roll of carpet so I could get it all delivered to the house today.

I have a good 4 days left on this job if the circular stairs weren't excessively stapled.  I'm gonna weigh myself after I get the job completed. :eek:


I almost forgot.........

Dinner tonight was lasagna and garlic bread with a beer chaser.  She makes everything from scratch.  Yum yum.   Really neat people too.


At first, I though I might be bragging about my own customers wonderful hospitality.

...but then I suppose you guys probably get the same treatment, right? :D 

Yesterday I did get butterscotch chip cookies and a short break about 1 O'clock for coffee and cheddar cheese filled bread puffs.
