This Sunday had all been dedicated to our carpet in the living room. Believe it or not, we called out a carpet cleaner yesterday and by the time of 1:30pm, it’s all done. Well, you would imagine nobody would do such a job on Sunday, would you?

The guy was actually from South America. He is pretty good. He removed all the horrible black marks next to the kitchen door and right under the lounge area close to the coffee table where is probably the worst place that got to used the most. Of course he used strong chemical spray beforehand, but sometimes you got to use them, do you? Nowadays who doesn’t really? Not everything can be done naturally or chemical free. I think I actually would rather seeing the carpet sparkling clean than stepping on a disgusting carpet thinking I am a nature girl. Anyway, I was amazed when the vacuum machines went through all the dirty area and left it white eventually. It was like a magic to me.

Right after the cleaning, we went to a carpet shop in Fyshwick and bough a big rug home. Yes, we are talking about Sunday afternoon 4pm…the shop was still open. The guy in the shop was also from somewhere else, probably Syria or similar countries. Thanks him to give us a good discount which I never thought we would get, and he fully supported my husband’s taste. Well, they both call my preferred piece “a bit childish”, how dare they?

Anyway, I was happy to live with “men’s choice”. The clean carpet and new rug really makes a big difference to our living room. I almost believed that I am in a new place now.

Look at the photo, do you agree with these men’s taste?
