We signed for our house 12/31/14. We're in the process of refinancing it, planning next Spring's vegetable gardens, and want to cover the damaged wood floors with either tiles or more wood.

Last New Years, We purchased a house... Tossed carpets, Painted rooms, Replaced lawns with veg'tables. Next year: new tiled floors!

We eventually replaced half the floors with travertine stone tiles. My front yard has a dozen different vegetables with multiple varieties, as well as citrus trees and grape vines.

Belated thanks for commenting. The house and front yard look great, and we're raising chickens in the backyard.
