My wife and I are currently having tile installed in our home. What a blessing…you would think! Most of our house was carpet, except for an area in the kitchen and dinning room. These areas were covered with laminate flooring as a wedding present from my friends at church. The laminate in the kitchen, I soon remembered, was laid down over existing linoleum. (Thanks Skip) Whoever invented linoleum and the NASA strength adhesive that bond it to the earth should be flogged! I have spent the past two nights scrapping, pulling and praying that God would miraculously remove this thorn from my side, all to no avail. But finally, tonight the heavens parted and I found the right mix. Boiling water and a one-inch scraper have become my hope and present joy. By tomorrow I will hopefully have this linoleum nightmare complete and we can begin our lives in the 21st century. Oh…until I begin our master bath. Ughhhh!
