Shag carpet...I have already seen it in a model home here.

I begged my mother for years to tear up her shag carpet and she refused- she said it "comforted her feet". It was awful carpet--not just one color, but a mix of blues and greens. My father worked for James Lee Carpets and they must have gotten a good deal because it was EVERYWHERE, on the stairs and in the bathroom and in the front hall, covering up these gorgeous wood floors. As soon as she died, I pulled them up. I mean like-the next day I did it. Isn't that terrible? I tore down her bedroom drapes and threw away the bedspreads too. I had stared at them for so many hours while she was dying that I couldn't stand it. I think I actually did that the night she died. I may have been a little out of it.
