My fantasy is to buy a house nearby solely to keep rescued antique pieces, fix them up as they need it, and sell them to people who will love them.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

You could do that with a shed.

Sheds have not air conditioning and plumbing. I am a princess furniture restorer. But yeah. My dream home has a big shed. With electricity.

Sheds CAN have electricity and plumbing and still cost less than a spare house.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Yellow walls and blue and white cabinets are reminiscent of Provence.
The shop was a big selling point when we bought this house. It has built in shelves on the back walls, windows, built-in work benches and shelves underneath, and a *loft*, with a drop-down ladder. Outlets every six feet along the walls, and at the moment, four big fluorescent fixtures, and an exhaust fan in the loft. It's 10" by 20", and believe me I've thought about putting in a small bath and galley kitchen and using it as a guest cottage, or my own private hideaway. But then we'd have to get another shed to hold all the power tools that aren't currently being used anymore, the christmas tree and ornaminks, the rest of the junque that's stored in there.

That would be a huge selling point for me too!

My beloved would have loved a shed like that.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I kinda want to take a walk in this storm. Probably shouldn't, huh?

They can. My shed does not, but my house does not have air conditioning, either. I think about adding plumbing to the shed, but it's lower priority than a lot of other potential projects. It does have electricity, some built in shelves and a workbench (all made of iron, I assume an ironworker lived here at some point, there is a LOT of iron in and around my house). And, I am told, a really high quality cement floor. The ceiling is just tin (or something that looks like tin) but the walls are pretty thick and it stays fairly cool in the summer time. Definitely one of the big reasons we bought this particular house.
I should really confirm that I have clean underwear for tomorrow before I go to bed, but I am very tired. I probably do, right? I'm almost positive.
