Our flooring was not what we ordered from the sample. It had been bugging me, and to be honest I had lost some sleep over thinking about it.
Not that flooring is a major issue- because really in the grand scheme of things it is a minor one at best. We are healthy, we have a roof over our heads, hubby has a job, yada, yada, yada...
But it was nagging at me, so we stopped in and looked at the sample again. Yep- totally different than what was sitting at the house. So the rep of the floor company met us at the house. His first response was, "Well that is an old sample". Wrong. Thing. To. Say.
I shot back with "Then remove it, because your sample is not representative of what you are actually SELLING." Then I may or may not have casually mentioned that I blog and am on Instagram. He backed off after that and agreed to return the wood and let us make another selection.
We chose this:
It has more of the grey tones in it with just a touch of black. I'm liking it way better than what arrived last week. Now the problem lies with scheduling and when the wood can actually be here, which may very well put off our move in date.
No, none of this is stressful. (as I take another sip of wine)
It's all good, and I'm sure it will all work out okay.
Right?
