We went to the flooring store today, and I was right about that the stairs as they are are fine for installing new carpet. We've borrowed some samples to see what we want and in three weeks someone's going to come by to take measurements. The carpet won't be installed until some time in August at the earliest. We want to get the rest of the woodwork in the stairwell painted (sides, newel post, railing) before that, but we've got time for that now.
I'm glad I was able to convince my sister to hold off on doing with the stair earlier this week.
Tomorrow is the day I've been least looking forward to all week: I'm going to have to move my mother's iTunes library from her old laptop (crapware infested HP that takes almost half an hour to boot) and move it to the laptop we used in the store (blissfully clean of crapware and thus fast). It'll take a lot of patience, swearing and frustration, with the crapware popping up randomly all the time.
