To keep or not to keep?
I've been wondering...
Is carpet always a luxury? Because that's what certain family members of mine think, and I personally think that if the carpet is matted-down 70's shag, there is pretty much no hope for it. That is why I tore most of it out of my house, while incurring the wrath of 2/3 of my immediate family. Also, if the carpet is not matted-down 70's shag, and is, rather, of the slightly more modern (80's perhaps?) flat patterned type, does that make it more luxurious? Is it luxurious if it smells of fox urine? I would venture a "No," though ever so hesitantly for fear of dishonoring a family member who has less of a sense of smell than I do. I would prefer concrete. Though I guess it might be possible to use some sort of cleaning solution to counter the odor...sounds like more work than its worth, but I suppose it would be a shame to just get rid of "new" carpet. Got it about four years ago. Husband (of mother) #3 rescued it from being thrown away from Fortune Bay Casino. They got the real "new" carpet.
Oh, the many questions of life...
