How to shampoo carpets

I’ve been wanting to shampoo the carpets for a while now and my parents showed up and I had not done it yet.  However, I finally couldn’t stand it anymore and decided to shampoo them.  I was about halfway done or so when I decided that I didn’t like the way they looked.  First, let me say that you should follow the directions on the shampooer to get proper results.  Second, what harm is there in disassembling the unit if you think it’s not working properly 😉  I’m “little miss fix-it remember?”  I know I have some neighbors that think that all I do is take things apart (or do demolition vs. remodeling) around here.

After I cleaned and reassembled the shampooer AND… after Heather came in and vigorously attacked a couple of trouble spots… the carpet looks better… not great but better.

BUT WAIT… there’s more!

You see, if I am gonna have the furniture pulled out of the room, I should patch a couple of holes on the wall and touch up the paint here and there.  OOOOH, and I should take down all the blinds and wash them (and the windows too).  And if I’m gonna touch up paint in here… I should do it in there too.

I have a list started… and a planned trip to Home Depot (kitchen faucet… remember?)  😉
