I’m not a very patient person.  This is a trait that I am constantly working on, and I’d like to say I’ve improved over the years.  But if restoring a foreclosed-upon 111-year-old house won’t test your patience, I don’t know what will!!

This house kind of just started out as a pipe dream.  Just two newlywed kids, one still in school and one just out, who felt a tingle when we saw the house.  I can’t explain it.  We just knew we had to have it.  But it seemed impossible that the price would ever be right, or that the bank would ever approve us for the loan.  But it was, and they did.  Then it seemed impossible that construction would ever start, but it did.  So I have to believe that finishing this house is a possibility, even if it seems impossible.  Each day I get more and more excited as we take another step towards our forever home!

Have a delightful weekend!! :)
