In a hurry this morning to go out in the cold rain to get sick again. Actually, I am trying my best not to get another cold on top of the one I still have. Although I am much better, I'm still not out of the woods. I feel as if I've lost the entire month of December so far on a personal level, but I've had a great month on a professional level. People still want to buy houses even though it's Christmas. Go figure!
Here's the link to read about this fabulous homestead in Georgia complete with an old smokehouse. The History: The farmhouse, the oldest privately owned residence in Forsyth County, is situated less than a mile from the Chattahoochee River (the original owners operated a ferry between Forsyth and Gwinnett counties). While the house was built first as a single-pen, hand-hewn log home, it was eventually enlarged to a double-pen dogtrot. By the early 1990s, the original interior clapboard walls, single pane windows, door hardware, and heart pine floors were still intact, but the home had fallen into disrepair.
Don't you love authentic renovation stories? I'm transfixed by this one! xo

Wow, amazing! Love it!
Delightful renovation.
Please take great care not to over-do it. I know you don't have the luxury of sitting home when there's work to be done, but rest when the opportunity presents itself. Those darn dust bunnies can wait! Frankly, I'm glad it's wintertime and you're busy. Otherwise, you'd come home from work, knuckles dragging the ground, think to yourself, "I've still got a bit of daylight left. Let's go mow the back 40, Webster!" ;-)
