We’d like to do more yoga here at 963, so renaming the treadmill room the Yoga Room is aspirational, even though the treadmill will still be in the Yoga Room. Then again, just now when I typed Yoga Room I actually typed Yoda Room – and you know, that just might stick. I like to think I could zip downstairs and sit with Yoda for some wisdom.
But no, Yoda was not the first surprise I found in the Yoda Room. No, the first surprise showed up when I started pulling up the carpet, which looked like this – kind of a sandy, beachy color.
And what I found beneath was carpet that looked like this.
I’m pretty sure we had that brown squares carpet in our house when I was in elementary school, which means this carpet-under-the-carpet is at least thirty years old. Which means I must be getting close to 40. But that’s another story.
What exactly does that carpet look like? Like this.
It’s glued to the concrete floor too. I sense pulling and scraping in my future.
