My cousin insisted on getting rid of the carpet in the living room when they were planning to have a complete house make over.   She wanted to have it replaced with modern and sophisticated laminate floor coverings that she have seen in a glossy magazine.  Their house received guests almost every week, now that her husband has been elected as town mayor.  Carpet cleaning after their guests had all gone home is always a problem.  Spills, dirt and soils could not be avoided eventhough, carpet shampooing and cleaning is readily available and can do the trick  but she said she had enough and wanted to have wood floors instead for easy maintenance.  Her mind is now focused  looking for laminate flooring selection on line and I won’t be surprised that she will order it soon.

Well, cousin is now their town’s busy First Lady!
