We have done such things to this old farmhouse, but many years ago. These days, I am only up for <i>small</i> projects...the kind that are completed in a weekend. <br /><br />So...this isn't a very encouraging comment, is it? Oh, but I know you will have a wonderful house when The Project is completed!!

I am looking forward to seeing the finished home. I think when you put a lot of your own work into a place it seems more precious. Almost every home we have lived in we have done things to it; even some rentals. <br />I know you will be happy when it is completed and I hope it will happen soon. I know what it is like to start one thing and end up with more to do on it than you planned. I do hope you hubby takes a break.
