That is wild David. I can’t imagine.
Askye that’s so good!!
And I, like javachik, often forget if I don’t post you don’t know I’m reading. Which I always am. (…ok wait now that sounds creepy…)
Also, Shir, if you are reading, I am amused how much of an impression you made on my friend Jen when you met her in Seattle—we just traveled together and she mentioned you a couple times! I’d forgotten you even met. (She thought you seemed cool and kind but with good boundaries, apparently)
David, what would happen to his/your old place?
That’s gorgeous, Hec!
it is possible to install a wood burning fireplace after the fact as long as you are okay with a stove type? I had one installed in my den here in CT and love it!!
I’d certainly consider it. But I’m finding way more fireplaces than main floor laundries. Unless you’re lake front (which I can’t afford), pretty much every one around here has a basement, because we’re prone to tornadoes. And I guess once there’s a basement, most people shove the laundry setup there. But, while I haven’t run the numbers, I strongly suspect more senior citizens die from falling down stairs than from tornadoes, and I plan to age in place. So, a unicorn hunting I shall go.
We had my mother-in-law’s laundry facilities up to the main floor from the basement so she could continue living in her home and not need to go to the basement. So, that’s something you might keep in mind as an option, Calli.
One of my mom's must-haves when they were house-hunting for the house they now live in was indoor laundry, which was hard to find! Mostly it's out in the garage or completely outside, apparently (mine is in the garage). I'm not sure wood-burning fireplaces are even allowed here these days. Not in new builds, I'm pretty sure. Good luck, with finding something that will work for you, Calli!
That place is gorgeous, Hec, I can see why Emmett would want it!
If y'all would support me in email like you used to, I'd know you were reading
[**KIDDING** I don't read my email, for the most part, I wouldn't know if you were]
I'm the same way, following along and not realizing that I don't post as often. I've been a bundle of stress and anxiety for a while now. It's been a tough year on the business front and I'm just trying to get through it all.
