New flooring same as the othThinking of removing baseboard in winter by taking out a strip of carpet a foot wide around walls. Then remove padding. Then remove tack strips. Then I’ll remove rest of carpet in spring for new flooring and baseboard.
Just want to get some of the work out of the way before I have to move furniture.
New flooring going to be the same as you already installed?Thinking of removing baseboard in winter by taking out a strip of carpet a foot wide around walls. Then remove padding. Then remove tack strips. Then I’ll remove rest of carpet in spring for new flooring and baseboard.

Another day in the week. Life goes on just as it always has.Could have been historically predicted 20 years ago. A result like this happens almost every mid term after a Presidential election. Happened under Obama didn't it?Took the house. Winning!

It will probably tick back over after Trumps second term.
Democrats need to come up with 2 things. A viable candidate and a vision....... a vision of something .......anything!
The message seems to be, tax people and corporations to their knees and open borders.
what did I miss?
.....oh, I forgot, higher gas taxes designed to force poor people to buy $50,000 electric cars.
$50,000 -$20,000 tax credit, -$10,000 subsidy to electric car manufacturers.
......or take California's lead and require all new homes be solar and photo-electric capable (Grid ready) ........ hey what could be better for new housing starts than mandating a $25,000 state requirement for all new home construction?![]()
We need to bring the cost of hospital visits, X-rays, MRIs, CT scans, treatments, & doctor visits down as well as the pharma costs. A person should not be charged $1k to sit in a waiting room of an ER or pay $640 for 2 minutes with an ER doc or $800 to $2k for a scan. It would also help if Medicaid paid for preventative care & if employers couldn't fire employees for being sick. I know the FMLA was supposed to cover that, but places like Walmart completely ignore it & use loopholes to get around it (or count on employees not knowing about it). If people get preventative care they are less likely to get sick, less likely to make others sick, and less likely to need emergency treatment for serious illness. I mean, it's not going to stop cancer or anything, but it can help reduce some of the crud. Dental and optical should be considered part of the regular medical care (I'm not talking cosmetic, I'm talking gum/tooth and eye health). Tooth/gum infections can be painful and can even lead to death if untreated.
Problem is, we have legislators who don't want to work together, who get paid by big corporations to protect their interests instead of advancing the good of the people, and govt is such a clusterf*** it will be difficult to get some competency in handling things. So long as Congress members get cushy ACA health plans & large pensions so they will never rely on Medicare/Medicaid/SS, they will not care. But, they aren't going to be making any votes against their own personal interests. I think that all of the politicians (regardless of party affiliation) need to step up or gtfo. They need to put their $ where their mouths are. I see spineless politcians mouthing off about what should and should not be done but then doing nothing when it comes to taking action. Or voting the opposite of what they said. To paraphrase a quote from a video, they write checks their a$$es can't cash.
(Since I have a sinus headache I'm cranky & frustrated with political BS). The Dems better not screw this up. Both sides need to stop the "I'm against it because it came from the other side" crap. I had people get mad at me about saying we can't just let all the illegal immigrants in and that we have immigration laws for a reason (granted, the first laws started as racism against the Chinese), but they exist for our safety & to protect immigrants from exploitation. But, what is happening with the children goes against immigration law/protocol, is psychologically damaging to the children, and is inhumane.
