Ryan’s on his way to Spain and I have a whole night of cleaning ahead of me before my guests arrive tomorrow. I just finished the kitchen, dining room and living room. Now I have to tackle the bedrooms and bathrooms. There is sawdust in ever nook and cranny of this house. Gave the dogs a bath tonight and they even had it in their ears!

From The Hotel Careyfornia Maintenance Department: During the 15 1/2 hour Great Blackout of 2012 in West Hollywood, Ryan decided to kick it old school and saw my remaining floor boards by hand. He leaves for Spain on Friday, and swears these floors will be done, power or not!

The latest in spring floor installation chic! (I later learned the knee pads were upside down.) :)
