Check out my commute to work...it may be a little over 25 ft.,I may have miscalculated...WHATEVER...
and so the dream begins!
This is the side visible to the 4-lane that unfortunatelygoes right behind my house, but it'll be good for biz...right!
These double hung vinyl clad windows
(with screens) I snagged at
Salvation Army for $30.00 each...
I really wanted old windows, but
I can't pass up a good deal...
They look wonderful next to the old
beveled glass door that was given to us...
weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!
Just lookit all this room...well, it's only 12x24, but dang, they don't call me the
Queen of Cram for nuthin!
I could've sold my old double doors many times,but they have always called to me.
My deceased husband brought them home
as a surprise for me one day, I've just never been
able to part with them,
they came from an old homestead near my home,
the Jim Hahn(Iowa state representative)family farm...
my husband saved them from the barn demolition.
They have history for many reasons for me!
The sweet lil' old windows I bought from Sister's Garden...
Barb always has the best stuff...
and they were on sale!!!
This sweet old door came from the first house I boughtfor my daughter and her son.
We had a fabulous shop in that house,
many people still say it was their favorite shop.
The house and all the houses on the block
were purchased by Family Video stores to build
one of their stores. It's wierd to rent videos in there,
knowing it's in my old living room...ha!
I had salvage rights to all the cool stuff!
Let in the light and get the wheels a turnin'!
I've worn myself out today with anticipationof what's to come...
but tomorrow I'm off...
that is after my four groomings go home...
to buy paint and get started.
Have a long row to hoe,
but all I have in this life is time...
I've been given this incredible energy
in this one lifetime,
so I must use it well before I have to give it back...
Let the games begin!!!
